Varanasi: Fast and Furious

We are in the underbelly of Varanasi, unsure how we will manage to resurface. If we do, we will head to the movie theatre to see a Bollywood movie. It stars Aamir Khan, the "Tom Cruise" of India. (With less crazy.) Other highlights of the day include taking a bicycle rickshaw, buying more clothes for Kate (Chris tries not to wince), and and visiting the Ganges. We are told there are dolphins in the Ganges. Freshwater dolphins. We'll believe it when we see it.

Gotta run! Bollywood calls!

  1. Underbelly? Doesn't sound good. Please post picture of Kate in her new clothes.

    (P.S. Are you checking email? If not, Simon and Nigel have changed their plans and would love to see you both in London.)

  3. Josh and I just saw Slumdog Millionaire, so we have a billion ideas of what you are doing in India and it seems none of them are all that far-fetched. MIss you terribly, but can't wait for you to be back to regale us with amazing tales!

  4. Underbelly? That's not like Jonah is it? Oh, that was a whale belly. Sorry.
    You guys are great entertainment for a crazy woman with 8 cats - and it's free :-)
    Love you,

  5. Sorry about the lack of USB ports but we saw Varanasi on TV last night! Made us feel like we were right there with you. Didn't see any dolphins though. PBS just started a 6-part series called The Story of India - we taped the first two episodes for you and you'd be welcome to watch it if you're not India'd out. Safe travels back to Dehli...
