Today is day number two in India. This morning, we went to Mahabalipuram (you can Wikipedia it). We saw temples built from 600 Ad, the beach, gigantic boulders balancing on a downward slope and more. After the 1.5-hour drive back to Chennai, we went to the mall, had lunch (I had a chicken stir fry from a Thai Halal-certified restaurant), got my cell phone, and a jar of Nutella for the room. During the long drive our driver was teaching me expressions in Tamil—hopefully I will retain some of what he taught. It is now almost 5pm and we are going to pack and get ready for the train to our next stop. All in all, everything is going well. I am excited to be finally able to settle in (as we will be at the same place in the countryside for the next six weeks) and not worry about moving from place to place. That’s it for now!
