Oct. 9, 2008 (Laura's 40th birthday) -- Presently Kahna Nat'l Park; came today from Indira _____ Pench Nat'l Park
The lodge we are at is fantastic. Very beautiful. I just finished a cooking lesson. The chef showed me sauces for vegetables and bread today. Tomorrow, dessert and meats. They will give me the recipes before I leave.
Yesterday, in Pench, we saw Tiger! She was beautiful, napping under a lantana vine. We took the jeep nearby and then road an elephant into the vine. Tigers can also be sighted by chance on or near the road, but when it is sighted by this method, it is called "Tiger Show." The guide asks, "Do you want to see Tiger Show?" We thought it was some hoaky tourist thing... but we said yes. Glad we did!
This morning, we drove between Pench and Kahna. "Almost die." However, when the seemingly endless lurching and jostling paused, we lept out for a photo op in a fantastic little town. We were immediately surrounded by townspeople, who showed us inside the temple, took photos of us, themselves, us with them, fed us, etc. They were great.
