I'd rather be playing with Elephants

Ode to India

What I'll miss most:
Bright colors
Spectacular sari's
Jingling of jewelry
The hysterical head-bobble
Maharaja's palaces
Unexpected beauty
Elephants
Bollywood movies and TV
Fascinating Hindu God's
Festivals
Endless bazaars
Cool old cars
Cows in charge

What I won't miss:
Public urination and worse
The smell
Poor children working/begging
The food
Hearing yes, when the answer is no
Wearing sleeves and pants
The service
Scarves for sale
Incense
Spices
The inability to form a line
Riding on the highway
Hearing "no problem" when there's a big one
