Dare County, North Carolina that is.

These are the adventures of the Sutherland family. We have moved from the northeast coast of North Carolina (Dare County) to the southwest coast of India...from Nags Head to Thiruvananthapuram. If you can't say that, then Trivandrum works, too.

Same Same Only Different

That's what they say in India.  The different part sure hits you at first, but after 6 weeks or so, everything is starting to feel surprisingly normal.  We've had a few cries and countless laughs.  Topping the list was the explosion of Cora's toilet.  The water heater mounted on the wall above it decided to hop off all on its own.  Thankfully, nobody was in the bathroom.  Ceramic toilet chunks were blown everywhere.  Cora was reading on her bed as the pieces were shot into her room.  The ripped hoses were spraying water in every direction.
