16 Days in Photos


We had big ambitions for blogging all along this journey, but don't you know us better than that?  We've done our best to briefly chronicle our adventures through India and Sri Lanka and the many hours spent traveling by air, boat, rickshaw, houseboat, and notably in a fine vehicle called the Palace on Road.  This may be the first and last post, so enjoy!




Rishikesh
After a launch into the Ganges' infamous Golf Course rapid, 
Anthony's sins have been washed away.  
No such luck for Amy, however.

Jammu Masjid Mosque
Alana and Megan in their finest muumuus for the famous mosque in Delhi.



Qutb Minar
Who knew there was a Hoover Tower in India?  



Qutb Minar
Indians are so photogenic.

Ho Ho Ho
Christmas in Delhi.  We got desperate for some Santa.


Ganges Water
Swapna, Anthony, Megan T and Amy brought back some holy Ganges water as a holiday present for Markell, Alana, and Megan V.


Brokedown Palace
On the way to the Taj, quality control systems broke down for the Palace on Road. Alana and Anthony huddle for warmth.


Green Agra
Mmmm…recycling is delicious!


The Taj
Great new backgrounds available at Glamour Shots.


Cocktails!
Taking the edge off with a festive drink at the Mumbai airport.  
Flying direct is overrated anyway.



Keep it classy


In the historic Galle Fort Hotel



Leshika's Mehndi
Prom.  Ethnic?


New Years Eve Wedding -- beginning...


New Years Eve Wedding -- middle...



New Years Eve Wedding -- END!!!!


Post Wedding Brunch
Where's Anthony?  Where's Anthony?



Brunch, continued...
Ladies who brunch at a beachfront villa.  NBD (geris: that means no big deal).



Elephant Love
This is Megan's happy face.  Trust us.
 
Sigiriya Rock



We kicked this rock's ass



Dambulla Temple Rock Caves. 
Where Buddhas outnumber humans



Monk on a Moto
Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance.



Cape Comorin
At the tip of the subcontinent



Indian Gothic
Don't let these two near your children, even though they've been blessed at the Hindu temple



On a Boat
On a houseboat in Kerala, down two peeps after Amy and Swapna departed.  We know they'd want us to have a good time, and as baby monkey has taught us, "you gotta keep on keeping on!!"
