Bomb Blast in Pune

You maybe hearing on the news that there has been a bomb blast in Pune. It is true but please be reassured that the GSE members are safe and sound. There are reports of possibility some foreigner killed and many people injured. The numbers have varied over the last number of hours. At this time 8 killed and 40 injured. The location of the blast was the "German Bakery" It has been pointed out to us on a number of occasions because everyone in the city seems to agree that they have the best bread. It is also in an area of restaurants and nightclubs.

Please don't worry about us. Our hosts have done an excellent job of making sure that we are always safe and well(over)feed.

The team was up early to watch the opening ceremonies of the Olympics. It felt good knowing that most of our friends and families would be sharing the experience with us in spite of living on the other side of the world. The display of talent and art made me extra proud to say that I am a Canadian.
