New Years Eve

New Year's Eve in Rumbai is not so exciting as say, anywhere else in the world. We were just settling in for a night of watching movies when our school secretary calls our house at about 9:45 PM telling us that the alarm is going off at the school. Since our principal is out on vacation it fell to Kathi and I to go check it out.

Not knowing if the school was on fire or what the issue may be we headed over to check it out. We checked all of the rooms and found nothing out of the ordinary. Having never dealt with our alarm system I had no idea how to turn it off even when the security guard showed me the panel. He had no idea how to turn it off either so we had to call in the fire department. They show up with their big truck and we have to check each room again so they can finally turn off the alarm. Turns out is was an electrical issue. So while I am happy there was no fire at the school my New Year's Eve was a little more hectic than we had planned.
