Chennai Cultural Visits


Women in sarees walking towards the Shore Temple.



Side view of the Shore Temple.



A god in both the male and female form.


Me in front of a monolith (single stone) model of a temple.
They would carve many life-size models so the king could choose
the best one to be built as a temple.



Cows in the road.



Carvings of gods and animal scenes in the side of a huge rock.



Barbara and I showing off our freshly piped henna.



Food!!
A typical South Indian plate of goodness.



A bunch of school girls wanted my autograph
and begged me to get another henna design.



My beautiful hand.
It's a peacock.
Head on my thumb and feathers on my fingers.
The henna lady did this in less than 2 minutes!



Video of men chasing their cows down the road.

Hey, you didn't by chance happen to see Lobo chasing those cows down the street did you?

How funny would that be!!! I think we'd be the only people laughing.
