First Day in India

After 15 years of wanting to come to India, I finally made it! And I'm loving it. Thanks, Dad, for letting me tag along.

There's no easing into India. Getting off the plane, even the air is different. After a mild adventure getting our car, we made it to the hotel around 3:30 am. Friday afternoon we got to explore the area around the hotel, and go into stores and little markets. I think it's my shopping dream come true--beautiful colors, designs, and all up for bargaining... It was a lot of fun. We got chai and some guy drummed and sang us an Indian love song.

Along the streets there are food vendors making things right there for you at your request. When I stopped to take these pictures a woman offered us a taste of her freshly made food. People have been so sweet to us!
