So today we are off and out of Lovely smoggy Mumbai. We are waiting seven hours for our train, just watched a cricket game (I don't understand that shit), We are going to Ellora and Ajanta caves about 8 hours train ride from here. After getting our train ticket, we saw an amazing seen of a wedding in the street. Shawn audio recorded the event. There were a bunch of guys playing music on various percussion instruments and the wedding party was dancing in the street. Then there was a display that I can only imagine was the groom offer dowry off which playfully the bride was demanding more. When there was enough offered they took off in a car elaborately decorated with flowers. Shawn just went out side and witnessed a car accident!!! Did either of us mention that I hold my breath when crossing the street. They drive quite crazily. Its good we have two sets of eyes because one or the other is grabbing each other back!! But hey we getting the hang of it sort of!. So this internet place is playing country music and dirty 94.5 dance hall.
Not sure when we will email next but after the caves we will either go to Goa then Kerala to Amma's or straight to Kerala.
Love, Tonya and Shawn.
