Ok, just and F.Y.I, I was not haning on for dear life in that tuk tuk and my opinion of the traffic here in India does not involve me sticking out my toung. More like waving my arms around franticly and screaming bloody murder! Seriously, pedestrians don't even have the right of way here, I think that's extreamly dangourous! And there are like no traffic lights here, it's more like a guy in a uniform with a wistle telling cars to stop and go. Like they listen! Anyways, If I were a citizen of India I would try impose a law regarding traffic like letting pedestrians have the right of way and stuff like that. It's scary crossing the street here because if a car does come at you, all they do is honk honk honk But the locals don't seem to mind they short of just manage to waltz trough the traffic. The scary thing is is that it all seems to work out, I mean, I haven't seen or heard of any car accidents! Seriusly, If there was such thing as a world wide dogeball tournement, I would definitly have all of India on my team.

Celebrate the 4th!!
Hello Dunbar family, I've enjoyed reading about your adventures... from Nam's philosophical view about peeing in public, to Rachel's cross town traffic musings, to Lydia's thoughts and feelings about her ol' home town. Enjoy the rest of your trip and celebrate the 4th of July! Cheeseburgers and hot dogs for everyone!! Or, kheema and dhal! Indian's also share the need for celebrating independance from the British... although their day is different from ours.
