Great Blog
Great blog. The yellow ash you see on the little girl is sandalwood paste. People apply it on their tonsured head to keep the body cool. Hope you enjoyed the trip in Tamil Nadu.

SUB ZERO Winter in BEIJING
Winter in Beijing is appealing without so many tourists & is a totally different climate to my home.Thinking of going as extension to Harbin Ice Festival.Friends think it odd.

What month were you in Paris
We are going to be in Paris March 17-24 and I'm hoping it is unbearably cold.

Spectacular colors!
Paul, the colors of India are truly spectacular -- as are the intricate carvings. Makes us look kind of pale and simple...Thanks for capturing and sharing it all. Keep cool! Joyce

No sweat
Paul, maybe it will help you to know that it's been cold and rainy here and we had to turn on the furnace in the farmhouse on Tuesday when Beth B. and all her MAHEC residents came for a retreat. Stay cool, eat whatever India has resembling ice cream, enjoy the colors (beautiful!), and know that we miss you here. Joyce

Just take it easy....
Dear Paul, I do so much understand you! The Indianess of India, crazy, overwhelming, too much, and then you will miss it when getting back to Malaysia. There is nothing to compare it to and that is why you will miss it later. Just take it easy Paul, drink a lot of sweet coffees, - seems such a contradiction while the heat is unbearable, but it helps, and chill. I felt so relaxed when I just focused on how gentle people are, smiling and waving their heads in such a sweet way. Probably to just be part of the whole scene is what it is all about. Your pictures are amazing! I am really enjoying traveling through your eyes and feelings! Hang in there! Love Ina

Do not compare Malaysian coffee shop with Starbucks. In the past, these shops served coffee plus others. They are now known as kopitiam.

Fabulous!
Paul, the pictures are wonderful, and it sounds like you're having a great time. Hard to imagine you on the other side of the world and not here mowing the pasture (which looks fine, by the way). Hope all the richness, diversity, and yummy food continue! Joyce

Well, nice pictures but really a bit of showing onesself off-with your popping up in so many photos. The pictures of the mosques(camiis) would be more appreciated if you could put their names next to it ie. Sultanahmet, Suleymanye etc.

Paris & home
Paris sounds divine! Hard to believe you'll be home in a week. Can't wait to see you all and welcome you home to the farm. Just in time for the raspberries! Love, Joyce

Wonderful pictures, well written!
Thanks for sharing your time in Hong Kong. I got a few laughs and found the information very accurate and informative. It's too bad you did not like the local food....it is some of the best in the world to me! The pictures of your family was great!

will miss your blog entries
I wonder if you will be willing to blog a final entry or 2 once you are home. I like the way you compare the cultures and habits and appearances of different places. I would love to hear your comments on reentry to the culture you grew up in. Just a thought. Paris looks fabulous- so green and relaxed indeed- how do young people get the money to buy the wine and cheese they eat all day in the grass?

Paris
Your pictures make Paris look green. It's interesting that I would color it green and grey, because most of the buildings that I remember are grey. But it is a lovely city, and the bread, cheese, chocolate and other treats are outstanding. Love, Mom

nothing like springtime in Paris
Sounds like you are soaking in all the sights. Great to hear that friends and family have ventured over to be explore and travel with you all. I love the pictures..and imagining the memories you are making on this final (?) stop before you return to US and us. I was cleaning through some papers and found an old memory book that our third grade class made. I found Jordan's page and her statement on the year. Jordan's writing again lures or even demands that the reader pause and reflect. Maybe these words will help as you prepare for departure. You wrote: Looking back it makes me dizzy. All the things that came to be. all that stuff that caught my heart up. now that stuff is deep in me" Please enjoy a pain au chocolat for me! love, Megan

wow!
Loved the art history lesson! I was an an history major and it was a great refresher! I loved the frecsos of Giotto in those small chapels in the hill towns. I also love Fra Angelico's work! When I was at the Duomo, a pigeon pooped on my head!

thanks to you all for sharing your latest sights, tastes and learnings with us. I loved the art history lesson and will wait to learn from you how to actually pronounce their names. How interesting...it never occurred to me that people had to discover the "art of 3-D" and emotion in artworks. I wish you all well as you move on to Paris. Much love to all and buckets of smoochies- Kiran

Nice pictures and great writing
Mr. Paul, I really enjoyed your writing and the cool pictures. In contrast to your experience of people, people everywhere, when I visited united states, i found the streets were deserted :-) Did you get a chance to visit one of the not so famous historic place called Thirumayam. You might find the below website useful to plan to next visit :-) http://www.thirumayam.com Many thanks!
