So we arrived 2 days ago in Chennai- southeast India. An amazing family picked us up at the airport and extended their home to us while we stay in Chennai. We got into town very late on the 4th (1am) and went straight to bed. The first day was nice because we were able to visit a devotee couple in town and share dinner with them. We were curious about traditional Hindu weddings so the couple showed us all their pictures and explained the 3 day celebration- so interesting! Then they served us dinner- traditional south Indian style on plantain leaves.
Today we traveled to city on the beach- Mahabalipuram. Our travels took a few hours but we plan to stay here for two nights. Our hotel has an internet cafe so that is how i am able to write now! So far India seems to be alot more developed compared to Tanzania, this is due to the large population of people. We are having a great time so far and are happy to be here by the ocean. The weather is beautiful and the peolpe are so nice and welcoming. TOmorrow we will visit temples and hopefully do some yoga! i will try to post some pictures :) haribol!

Yo sista niece, so glad you're safe and enjoying your environs. Ocean sounds nice right about now. Light snow falling and 25 deg. I'm still a little sick can't seem to shake this cold which is now in my chest. To the doctors tomorrow. Thank God for state subsidized health care. I pay $33 a month for incredible coverage. Anyway, my thoughts are with you and wish I was too. Talk to you soon, love you Michael
