Indian Transportation

Planes, trains, automobiles, rickshaws, e-rickshaws, elephants, camels, boats, trucks...we experienced it all.  Driving through India is like being in a dance with many performers moving through the tiniest of spaces and somehow making it to the end.  Every arrival is like arriving at the end of a rollercoaster ride.  We survived, barely.

Badges! Badges! I don't need no stinking Badges!

What has become of me?  I've become that mom who lives vicariously through her 7 year old daughter.  Don't get me wrong.  I haven't signed her up for Toddlers and Tiaras or Honey Boo Boo's Texas Choice Pageants.  I signed her up for Brownies!

We also step off the tourist track to observe and experience a living museum where life and conditions as well as human spirits remain frozen in time.... Trinetra Tours. The itinerary will look like a bus tour on steroids....but each day has been carefully planned for maximum enjoyment.  Trinetra Tours helped design everything in this itinerary. They booked the hotels, transportation, all the drivers.  We spent about a month emailing back and forth making sure I had all the 'family visits' incorporated into each city visit.   Once the itinerary was worked out we were able to choose hotels based on comfort 3star to 5star.  Nothing was booked without a 'Tripadvisor' review check.   Da...
