Notes from Carl Dec 17 2007 in Delhi India ona Rotary polio NID trip part A

This is our last day in India as we leave for the 15 hour trip to Newark NJ tonight at midnight.  While it will be great to be home I am not sure that I am ready for the cold and snow.  Today we visited the Rotary supported school in Delhi, Akshay Prtishthan , for poor and handy caped children and they presented this dance.  I have a great video but it is too large to upload to Youtube so I will have to wait until I get home to edit it down.  This school is a mixed normal and "differently abled" children.  The idea is that the handy caped children are not in a handy caped only school but are with other children that are not so challenged.  The school was outfited with ramps and busses with wheel chair lifts.  The school included regular studies as well as computer, sewing and mechanical classes.
