... rental companies in coimbatore and found very good reviews about them too. So we decided to email them on the mail id provided in their website and got a response pronto. They were reasonable and sounded very professional so we decided to hire the minivan from them and they suggested that we be put up in the jenny club and do a local sightseeing trip for a day. Jenny club again was such revelation. It is one of the best clubs that i have ...

... About two and a half hours in, while passing through a narrow cutting, we ground to a halt, and all the people in the carriage became very excited, shouting "hathi, hathi", which, as anyone who has seen The Jungle Book will know, means "elephant". Sure enough, we looked out of the window and there was a huge elephant just standing on the line looking at the train. The train staff and the guards went up to him ...

... babies, toddlers,little girls, little boys,big girls, big boys, special care, so lots to choose from. I (Bobbie), ended up working with Sophie´s class - a group of kids and adults with various disabilities. Sophie, the teacher, was wonderful in guiding me and I spent time with the kids on their English, Math, reading and crafts. They were such a joy to be with. They looked forward to my showing up every morning and I had to make ...

... world would take note there would be a lot less people having to inject themselves all the time. Meditation was good although I am not able to concentrate on the one thing for the whole time...I drift....

... plantations, passing through small villages, small huts and large farmers' houses. As you climb higher you pass cocoa farms, vanilla farms, pepper plantations and rice paddies. In one of the small villages along the way, we stopped for lunch at a place the driver knew. It was just off the road and we walked in and sat in the front room. There were locals there so we figured it must be alright, and not just a tourist trap. A few minutes pass and the driver comes in with a policeman ...

... to nejak rozumne nedoroste. Cestou od holice, se mi smali i skolni deti. Mela sem sto chuti mu rici,at uz to vezme trovnou na semis. Jinak cajove plantaze jsou naprosto dokonale, geometricky serazene keriky po kopcich kam oko dohledlo. Nechala jsem se odvest na vyhlidku a zpatky jsem sla plantazemi a pozorovala jak to vlastne trhaji. Meli takove nuzky se sitkou a tam listky stradali a pak je presypavali do pytlu. Makaly tam jen zensky, chlapi na ne dohlizeli ...

... why. The next amazing room I saw was the Maharaja's sitting room. There is a chair made of gold with a step-stool leading up to it, resting on beautiful silk carpet, and flanked by armed guards who will shoot you if you step over the cordoned-off barrier. It looked more like a bedroom to me, the way it was arranged, but still grand nonetheless. There are also columns everywhere in this room. If you've seen Lord of the Rings, you'll remember the Barad-Dur area they enter in ...

... While I was there, a group of schoolgirls saw me and waved me over. They were so sweet and had me take their picture (I'm not sure how this was communicated exactly, because they only spoke Kannada and I can't speak it at all). They called me 'Auntie', a respectful title here, which was really funny as they were nearly taller than me.

... restaurant and had a cup of Indian coffee, which is like western coffee, except tastes like it is made with condensed milk. We arrived in Madurai late morning, and immediately set off to find the temple, as it closed at 1pm every day. As we were walking to it, a guy with a dollar sign stuck to the top of his head came up to us and offered to be our guide. We knew right away that he was just after some money, but we really could use a guide, so we accepted him ...
