India update no.1

Finally, figured out how to get online and here it is, our first update from India.  I don't care what anyone says but I am fast falling in love with this place, and this only after spending one whole day in the country.  It's so full of culture, history, spirituality that it's oozing out of my ears already.  There is so much to take in and yet so much that is familiar.

Here are a few of the highlights - Pris had her a mega shopping day today, our first full day here, security is tight, they even check the engine compartment in cars at checkpoints, Pakistan and India are facing each other off at the border, our tour guide is also a part time priest in one of the temples and is converting us to Hinduism and the best surprise of all, other members of our tour cancelled so we got everything to ourselves.  As I used to say in college . . . . "NIIIIIICCCEEEEE!"
