Pictures from Day Three

These first two images are taken of the gorgeous hotel we are staying in. We were remarking today that the experiences of most of the people we know who have adopted are not in such plush settings. In India, there really is a major difference between the "haves" and the "have nots". In this city, to drop to a lesser hotel would be to put ourselves in a bit of danger. It may look as though we are splurging to get something extra nice, but that really isn't the case particularly when you know that staying a week here is much cheaper than staying at lesser hotels for the same duration in the US.




Good times at breakfast.


Kailey didn't find her scrambled eggs very appetizing.


The first two pictures are of a massive tree in the courtyard of our hotel. Check out the size of the canopy! I don't think I have ever seen such a thing. The third tree image is of some sort of palm also growing in the courtyard.






Sorry. Can't get enough of the cows.


Trash is everywhere.


The proper way to ride a motorcycle as a passenger while wearing a sari.
