The Good, Bad, and Ugly!

India has passed by so quickly - each day was filled with sightseeing, history lessons, & adventures in driving. 13 Days may seem too short for some to explore this country - and some may scream that it is too long but for all of our ups & downs, Jay and I still agree with [...]

Last Stop… Mumbai!!!

Our last stop on this crazy ride through India is Mumbai (Bombay).

We arrived around 7am on the 23rd and will unfortunately have to move again tonight when we leave for the airport & head to Mauritius. (We actually are taking a 2:45am flight on the 25th..)

Finally… Post 3 of 3

Just before we left Aristi and James and after the adventures of trekking in Chiang Mai’s jungles I decided to go see someone about the pain in my chest.
I sought the advice of a local medicine man who specializes in detox massages and a variety of other holistic healing practices. I entered his little studio [...]
