My last day at the blood bank was very chill. Tanvi had brought her wedding album so we spent the first part of the morning looking at all the pictures. She looked gorgeous and I loved her wedding sari. It was interesting to see how people dress differently in the north and the south even for weddings. Ushma wanted to make a video of our Daman trip so that was something else we worked on. You can watch the video two posts down.
After lunch the girls had arranged for one of the ladies at the blood bank to put mehndi on my hands which ended up taking around 2 hours. While the lady was in the middle of working on the design Dr. Italia called all of us for a meeting so we had to stop for a bit while we all met with him. He basically just wanted to make sure that I had all of the information I needed for my project and that I had enjoyed my trip. They all gave me a gift which I already packed so I'll take a picture and put it up when I write my next post. He wished me luck and told me to come back and visit which I would like to do so hopefully I can get some funding to come visit again. I would like to come back in 6 months to a year to see how the program has improved and to see what the next step would be.
I went back to finish up my mehndi after our meeting and we just spent the rest of the day chatting while I waited to take the mehndi off. The lady did an amazing job with the design.

I loved the design. Parts of it remind me of Ganesha
The finished product
When I first took everything off. It's gotten much darker and will probably be even darker in the morning
