After all, it's a small world

For our one-year anniversary of arriving home from India with Niranjana, we went to India Palace in Kennewick for dinner last night.

The owners are from Mumbai, but the chef is from Chennai. He came out to talk to Niranjana in Tamil, just to see if she might remember any of her native language (she didn't).

We got to chatting, and he asked what part of the city the orphanage is in. We didn't know, but we mentioned that we stayed at The Breeze Hotel, figuring that would mean nothing to him.

He brightened up because he was the chef there in 2004 and 2005.

Yes, it's a small world.
