... some taking paddle boat rides or buying popcorn to feed the geese or just going for a walk along the shoreline walkway. We took a walk down to a park that seemed to be lovers point. Jim and I were surprised by this because there is such limited contact between the sexes and no public displays of affection even the holding of hands. When we run across busy streets, I sometimes grab Jim's elbow, but otherwise we don't touch in public. (And if you know Jim ...

Not what I would have expected in Central India, and all in all a nice change of pace!

... far. Realized in the afternoon as I tried to close the few inches of dusty curtains that the window was broken. Had the guy hang a bed sheet in the window to cover it, but that doesn't help with the noise, so could not sleep for the next 2 nights. Why didn't I take earplugs to this damn country!
