Day 1

Kurtis left this morning at 4 45 AM !!!  Anand's mom Jay was kind enough to drive him to the airport.  I was just at the airport last night dropping off the Chinese folks, so another trip was not too appetizing.  I packed him a BLT and some junk food.  I hope he has enough winter clothes.  Both Anand and Kurtis seem rather excited, and I would be too if I was departing on an adventure like that.  Will had to handle his student Ethan today, tutoring 6th grade math.  Kurtis is such a natural teacher, can think quickly on his feet.  He will probably have several students this summer.  I will give him the password so he can blog about his trip.
