I made it, I'm in India!

-had to do a major bypass through Europe- but I made it, he he.
Na Europe was great (I'll upload pix when I get to Kolkata, sorry been on the move)
- but boy sheesh is it different to Mother India- or what. You couldn't get a better example of 'contrast worlds' if you tried.. we'll the rich in poor gap is actually a pretty good example.. but still..

Only in India, do you have to practice not peeing on your feet

Only in India, do you almost die dodging the hanging exposed wires, and the monsoon rains (not a good combination)

Only in India, do you almost die crossing 6 lanes of Taxis, Tuktuks, Rickshaws, Auto rickshaws, Buses, Scooters, Bicycles, Cows, dogs and those zillion people they have over here, (almost as bad as getting of the Tube in Soho London at peak hour- aye Tim)..
.... yeah there's allot of almost dying in India.. na it's safe as Mum/Dad honest..

Only in India, do you walk around with a huge stick... cous someone didn't get their Rabi's shots (and there are way more mingy looking dogs here that 5 years ago- Ekk!)

Only in India, are there beaches which are used as human toilets

Only in India, do you get lingering butt grabs in crowded standing trains.. eww gross

Only in India, are you the only female in a packed plane, bus, and male screening security line.. (that was Pritika, very, very funny..)

Only in India, do you go to bed caked in Mossi repellent

Only in India, can you see a Goat being sacrificed and burnt..

Only in India, do you poo blood then think there is some kind of worm wiggling round in your stomach (sorry that wasn't actually me, again probably too much information..)

Na, India's great -

Only in India, can you get a giant pancake (Dofa, specific only to South Chennai) that takes up the size of your table

Only in India, can you travel around by yourself and feel completely safe, meeting some lovely, patriotic people along the way!

I'm loving India! Been chilling on the Tsunami struck east coast of Chennai, then tomorrow we are flying to Kolkata to climatize for 5 days then heading for the hills of Darjeeling where we will sip some tea and make a toast to you all..

Till then, I'll leave you with your storms and cold weather..
I'll now go outside to my sweat shower.. Byeee
