Last day in India

Well this is it, our last day in India. We are in Mumbai, our plane for Thailand is tonight at about midnight. I'm so glad we came to India, I know we never would have made it here on a usual 2 week vacation from work. I think I can best sum up my time in India by borrowing a quote from Ruth Prawar Jhabvala that was used in May You be the Mother of a Hundred Sons, a book about women in Inida. Jhabvala said that being a visitor in India was like being strapped to giant wheel, sometimes you are up, sometimes you are down.

Wow, is that an elephant? Up.



Child beggars. Down.

Beautiful views. Up.






And so it goes.

Farewell India.
