Happy Diwali

Awakened this morning predawn by massive fireworks right outside my window.  It is the festival of lights today, a big celebration that reminds me of the old 4th of Julys when we were allowed cherry bombs and M-80's.  Some really big stuff going off.

Last night took another ride, like an amusement park scary one in a motorized rickshaw.  The traffic is not to be believed....lots of motorbikes, bikes, pedestrians, cars and all zooming around chaotically.  Passing with inches to spare.

Too cool! I'm reminded of the movie "Eat Pray Love" when Julia Roberts' character first arrives in India and everything is just chaotic. All kinds of traffic & noise & crazy driving. You're living the dream sir! Hope you're having a terrific time.
