Once again, I am without words...

The last six days have been such an unbelievable experience that it is virtually impossible for me to sit down and try to convey the sights, sound, smells, adventures and experiences we have encountered since we left the "Big White Whale" six days ago.

I have decided merely to send a smattering of pictures while I have time to put pen to paper, [finger to keyboard] over the next two sea days.

We left the ship six days ago and only returned a few hours ago. The last day was spent on a train where we journeyed almost exactly 1/2 the way across India. [We were located just above the second 'I' in India on my map!] That in itself is a story that will be almost impossible to convey to readers in a meaningful way. Perhaps when my sensory overload has diminished I will attempt it. 

Yes, we saw tigers, and that was to be a bonus for me, and it was. The real adventure though was getting out and experiencing, albeit from a tourist point of view, the heart of India. We ate Indian food for five of those six days and none of us became ill. That is also a miracle. Two of the six nights away were spent on a train sleeping fully clothed, that is also a tale, or two!

Moe in the meantime has apparently been having a wonderful time. Three tours while in India and after a brief time with her, somewhat more aware of 'the way things are here'.

The photos are not meant to tell a story, but merely give a sense of why I am not too sure where to start telling about our experiences.
