India!

Where to begin? First off, I would like to apologize to anyone who has been checking this on a regular basis. I originally thought that I would be updating my blog every few days, but I grossly under estimated the number of Wi-Fi “Hotspots” there are here in India, that being said…

India has been unreal, Unlike any place I have traveled to before. In the first day alone our taxi driver drove over and killed a puppy, I was electrocuted 3 times and got over 80 mosquito bites (stopped counting at 75, and 15 of those were on my face!) Needless to say, after talking myself into thinking I had malaria for 2 days, my trip to India had begun. It has now been over a week and it just keeps getting better everyday. The people are so friendly, and curious about what your doing, thinking, etc. There are of course a lot of beggars, touts, scam-artists and a whole bunch of other things but I don’t think that any other country really has the raw energy of life that India has. Anything and everything happens here.

I am going to try and post more pictures, but sightseeing all day and then editing 500 photos a night can be a bit much on you! Here are some shots, hopefully they can hold you over until later.

Japan

Arrived in Japan this afternoon and have about a 24 hour layover before continuing my journey to India tomorrow. I decided not to go into Tokyo but to spend the evening in Narita, which is close to the airport. Here's a shot from the temple below, tomorrow....... INDIA!
