Hi David,
Beautiful...even if there is shit everywhere.
I love hearing about your sikh friend, reminds me of Raj and her family and the similarities we've found b/w us...mostly the gossip, but achhhhhh, its about food too.
Love, Lu :)
So True David, a perfect shavuot - and so true. The lessons are all around us - in India, in southern Florida (where I am now), wherever we find ourselves - if we open our eyes and our hearts. I look forward to following you on your journey.

David! So happy to get your blogging email and so happy to read your postings. You're days sound awesome so far and I can't wait to read more. Have fun on the tuktuks!
Welcome Hey Dbop,
Sound like you got an indian style welcome.
I love that place....Your blog entry reminded me of my first day in India with the tuktuk drivers trying to use their Jedi mind tricks..." you are coming wit me..." A remember delhi in 1995 was like a cross between a greatful deadshow and New York city in the year 2064...I was bleary eyed and excited to be on the adventure....
My first day was spent walking about exploring and not buying a whip that my first indian friend of the trip was offerring for the steal of 5000 rupees and that as we walked like some sort of reverse taxi meter dropped to the final cost of 20 ruppess.
I love India it is a challenging place but it has a flow to it.
I am glad you are there and I hope it reveals more of it's beautiful secrets.
Phew...I was expecting your tour guide to leave you stranded or rip you off some how at the end of your story! Sounds like you had a genuine host and a memorable shavuot. Yay diversity!
Namaste, my friends. 10 weeks in India and I wanted to share some of my experiences with all of you. So far, I am safe, healthy and incredibly happy. Thanks for reading--each blog is unique, offering a different look in on Indian life and my experience. Please make sure to let me know how you are doing in the other parts of world. And thanks to all those who sent me blessings and thoughts before I left. I love them! Love, David... full info
