In any event, I’m glad you had a chance to see southern India, a nice compliment and contrast to many of the traditional tourist destinations in the north.

We have only just left India, but what you mentioned here about Southern India, reminds me of our travels too!

@Dave and Deb:  Southern India was a revelation, wasn’t it?  We really enjoyed it and the north, but in very different ways.  And it was nice to go with a sense of history or attachment to places like Chennai and Kodai, though they’ve changed so much since the old days.  By the way, if the kathakali dancers in Kerala have their way, they’ll still be there when you return.

@marylouise:  Wow, good for you.  I completely understand the need to return, repeatedly.  I would put our chances at visiting India in 2011 as slight (we are currently noodling a visit to Bangladesh).  We should definitely stay in touch.

@Sonya: Thanks!

@Earl: Glad we could assist.  Yeah, who knew?  Free biryani festival.  The people there were having a terrific time and they were so excited to share…the food, themselves, everything.  That is the spirit we travel for.

Just the thought of stumbling upon a biryani festival is enough to put a smile on my face…and make me want to eat some good biryani.

I have been to North India 6 times, never to the South, so I enjoy your colorful photos and ideas for travel in the South. My 7th trip to North India will be for 4 months in 2011. Any plans for travel there in 2011?

I didn’t know that Audrey was born in India and that her mom grew up there. How wonderful to be able to go back to your roots.
I do regret not going to the Kathikali Dance in Kerala. Sometimes we are just too lazy when we travel.
The south of India really was wonderful!
