After over 24 hours of travel, twenty Rotaplast team members from various parts of the USA arrived in India at 4am on April 3. A large contingent of Rotarians greeted us at the airport with silk shawls and flower leis. We watched the sun rise as the boxes and our luggage was loaded into waiting vans.
After breakfast, an afternoon of recuperation for some, a hospital tour for others, and a wonderful evening dinner at a host Rotarian’s spacious home, and then we were ready for clinic the next morning.
