No refrigerator?  No problem!  Powerbars were our lunch, but they had melted in the heat...so we naturally used the car "AC" to make them a little more edible.

No Indian heritage?  No problem!  They'll just add some dots and stripes for you...for a price of course (which they don't tell you until after they paint your face)

No pool?  No problem!  Unfortunately this was probably the dirtiest water I've ever seen...but I don't blame them!  It was hot!

    What a great adventure for the both of you !!! … and following in the meandering footsteps of your West Coast family, and your Chicago blood and extended families! You’ll remember these foreign festivities foreever. I’ll bet that Tanya, Mark, and Erica all would have loved being in India with the bothe of their cousins … Have a great (and safe!) time … Uncle C
