ok, so here is the first update.

I was going to write a fairly lengthy episode full of brilliant witticisms and wry observations about our adventures but my brain is coated by a thick layer of what can only be described as roofing tar.

India is intense.
our experiences so far have been some of the most difficult and amazing ones we've ever had. the only thing you must keep in mind here is that you must surrender to the country and that any planning is simply impossible.

that being said.. we are making headyway. the population treats us like rock stars wherever we go and our rickshaw driving skills are quite good at this point minus the episode where I hit the walls of the lot where we picked up the rickshaws. At least BOTH fenders are dented so there's a bit of symmetry there.


the going is slow though and it seems that with only 2 weeks in front of us, darjeeling may be unnatainable but We'lll motor on and do our best.

not sure where we'll be on new years but you'll all be in our thoughts.

this place is crazy!
