Off to Indianapolis, Indiana


We left Kansas City, Missouri early morning yesterday to go to our next stop - Indianapolis. It was a 10 hours ride and we just enjoyed every minute of it. Our hosts Eric and Tara Pangburn met us at the bus station and brought us to their lovely home. It's still cold here but not as cold as we first arrived in the US. The temperature is already rising now that spring is here. We would love to see the grass changes it's color from brown to green, the leaves of the trees beginning to come out and the blooming of flowers in this part of the world.

We will miss the people we visited in the different states, they really treated us well and welcome us to their homes. Understanding the American culture is also a learning experience for us. We still have a couple of weeks to go before we go home. We look forward to seeing more of the US and meet people as we travel for the next two (2) months.

This weekend, Gary, Stephen and our host Eric Pangburn will watch a NBA live game at the Saleno Field House in downtown Indianapolis. This will be our first time to watch the game and we look forward to the wonderful experience.

The NCAA March Madness is ongoing. Sixty-Four (64) top NCAA Division 1 teams are vying for the crown. Last year's chmapion was Kansas University (KU) Jayhawks.

NCAA Final 4 is scheduled to be on April 2-6 in Detroit, Michigan. Coach Jim Kessler of Grace College Lancers in Winona Lake, Indiana was gracious enough to invite Gary to join him in this very exciting event.
