AED Training--DC

Heading to Washington to train with AED and meet the other DAT teachers and our international counterparts. Hopefully housing will be taken care of this week and then I can just focus on fine tuning the interview questions, packing and spending time with my family. All the gear has been purchased, made a couple of contacts in Chennai. Spoke with my principal this morning about helping foster connections with my host school—and it looks like we got some interesting things to offer. Picked up a book (another one!) on Gandhi and Churchill. Started reading it and it is fascinating—supposedly it gives a unique insight into modern India.

I’m taking this as a bad sign—I miss my daughter already and my flight hasn’t even left. I can be such a hopeless sap, but I love being a dad and Mads is such a wonderful kid. September through mid-November is going to be hard.

Thank heavens I’ll be busy. Gotta stay busy.
