In short, our journey in kid's story format:
C is for Clarinets on Camels:
Republic Day in India is a curious thing. Perhaps the best part would be the full piece band riding camels. Perhaps the oddest part would be the giant phallic missile on display. Perhaps the most talked about part would be the whereabouts of Sarcozi and girlfriend, not wife mind you, Carla Bruni.
K is for Kiss me Kashmiri:
Wow! Let's say it again, WOW. There is a saying in India that refers to the eyes of Iran, the hair of Bengal and the beauty of Kashmnir. Folks, this ain't no lie. Kashmiri men are gorgeous. And so, as they stare at us, we stare right back wondering how one says "can I share your firepot" in Kashmiri.
I is for Indians on Ice:
After getting picked up by a water truck and hauled up a snowy mountain to a temple for Shiva (in a mostly Muslim region), we head back down the hill and can't help but explode by the spectacle of Indian tourists attempting to master ice. It may have taken 20 minutes for the family of four to cross a foot patch of the frozen puddle. This is not to say that Genna did not fall on her butt too. Not to fear, the water truck picked us up on the way down too as we passed tourist bus after jeep stuck in the ice in our warm and free ride into town.

Sarkozy and Bruni in India? Just today someone at my school showed me a French mag with Bruni on the front, talking all about them. Keep traveling... you still haven't escaped the tabloids!

I did tell you so. Get whatever you need to keep warm and leave it with people who can use it when you move on. Saffron sounds divine. Love both of your entries, makes me feel like I am having an adventure too. Have fun, be safe. Love
