1 billion people can't all be wrong.

Again, use the snapfish site for photos (you can log in as me).

First impressions of India? Traffic! There were no lanes. No paved streets, just cars and motorcycles trying to kill each other. See picutre 31 and 32. I would never drive in India.

We visited Vinod's grandmother's house. She has a very nice view of one of the most famous Hindu temples in Chennai. The picutre doesn't do it justice because it's being renovated.
There is a big pool in front called "the tank." That is part of the temple. See pictures 33-37 for views from Gma Vinod's porch.
