More pictures

The following pictures, from top to bottom, are from Jaipur through current (please enjoy, these took forever to upload, haha):
View of Jaipur

This is the troupe of Bengali musicians from Digi Palace in Jaipur. The old blind man is the third from the right. He was helped on stage by the third man from the left.


This is the Shahar Palace in Jaipur




Macaques below the Hanuman Temple. Greedy, filthy, perfect.




Josh walking on the ghats next to the Ganges in Varanasi





Tibetan or Nepalese monks doing their thing around the main temple, Bodh Gaya






Theravadin monks also doing their thing around the main temple, Bodh Gaya







This photo speaks for itself I think...








Josh and I. Our picture was taken by a guy from Sikkim who had spent ten years in Berkley...nice guy, 30's, long black hair, beads, Free Tibet shirt, etc.









Baju and his wife, these were our hosts who lived in Gaya, about 11 km away from Bodh Gaya










The courtyard at one of the "government guesthouses." The accommodation was adequate.










Josh and I after our day playing in the Sea. Horrible sunburns hidden beneath unaware smiles.













Typical sign in Jew Town, Cochin. Truly "God's Own Country."












One of the houseboats that can be rented on the waters.














Unimpressed fishermen in the backwaters.















Priest relaxing on the beach in Varkala, Kerala.
















A sight seen every night on the beach.

A beach cafe overlooking Varkala beach.

















From the cliff top looking down on Varkala.

Hope things are continuing to be splendiferous! Snow here Thursday (about an inch) - we are pretty much on opposite ends of the globe...

Note to Tobin - I have my office clocks fully employed now: Julia is in Kampala, Uganda and you designated as Hyderabad.
