India 2011


Playing at 5am (Indian time)

Joel, Matthew, Philip and Joanne
At the Bombay airport at 5am, we ate some breakfast:) and Philip enjoyed the little play area near our gate.

Finally on January 1, 2011, we arrived in Trivandrum, where Matthew's family is. We will stay till Jan. 17th, next Monday. It's been really nice to be here!

We've been to the park, gone for walks, gone shopping and just hung out. Last weekend we went to Matthew's mother's native place (where she grew up) then to Alwaye to see ACC and be with the friends on Sunday.

Hope you get a sense of what we are experiencing from the pictures below!

On a walk, beautiful country!
