In Chennai again

I'm here in Chennai again after 3 years.  My flight wasn't bad at all--Denver--Chicago--Heathrow--Chennai.  Left Nov 29 and arrived Dec 1, some 28 hours in all.  Just happy to have gotten here with my health and my luggage.


jet lagged in luxury

Staying at the super fancy "Royal Meridien Hotel Chennai" just because it's near the airport.  After a few hours of sleep, an excellent vegetarian South Indian breakfast, I went out into the garden for a look around and heard the bells clanging at a little temple next door; an auspicious beginning.   Now I'm sipping a cup of lemon ginger tea and writing without trying to think or do much; I'm too fatigued for that.  Think I'll have an afternoon nap before venturing out.



my favorite breakfast!
