I've wanted to visit India for a long time, but doubt I ever will. So give us all the flavor of it you can.

So glad your doggie is well again! And that banyan tree can inspire a story all by itself, can't it?

I too am glad your dog is better.

I LOVED reading about all your experiences with family in and around Bangalore.. It brought back many memories. While I don't know Bangalore well, I do know New Dehli, Calcutta and the Himalayan Foothills.

How wonderful to have the opportunity to meet up with Rachna Chhabria!

Of course, you have now made me hungry for some authentic homemade Indian food!

That sounds like an amazing trip. I would love to go. Lucky to have family there too. I've tagged you at my blog if you have time! http://nickwilford.blogspot.com/2012/03/tagged-again.html

Hi Elizabeth, it was great to meet you and discuss our writing and publishing journeys. Am glad that you had a wonderful trip and a lovely memories that will stay with you for a long time.

This is wonderful Elizabeth. I loved hearing about your trip and India itself. Silicone valley, huh? No doubt, seeing India is such a big player in the technology revolution.

I'm so glad your dog is better! And it sounds like you had a wonderful trip to India.

Richard, I'll do my best. Your mentioning "flavors" brings back all those great meals I had during our visit! :-)

Alleged, I agree. To me there is something mystical about a banyan tree. It's just amazing to see one.

Joanna, lucky you to travel all those places. I still have yet to get to the places in India you've traveled. We have friends in Delhi, and are hoping one day to visit them.

Nick, thanks for the visit, and thanks for tagging me. It'll be awhile before I can pass on the tag, but that was so nice. As for having family in India, it does make the visits very special indeed. We usually do one touristy thing only, and then the rest is actually really living there for two weeks, which always leaves me saturated with India and it lingers with me a long time afterward.

Rachna, it was such a pleasure for me, too, to meet in person. And have pictures of the event. :-)

Hi, Denise, nice to see you here. Thanks for visiting and commenting. Hope your writing project for April goes well.

Cynthia, thanks for the good wishes about Cezar. Yes, it was a trip to treasure, to say the least.

Elizabeth: Thanks so much for sharing your stories and pictures. I am enjoying your trip from my desk. Fascinating!

This doesn't just sound like it was a trip, it sounds like it was a journey you will never forget! : )

I'm so jealous that you got to meet Rachna! She is a dear bloggy friend. Thanks for sharing your trip with us!

Julia, I'm glad you are enjoying the journey via your desk. There is more to come!

Emily, yes, it's always a journey to remember. India gets inside one! You don't just visit.

Anonymous, yes, it was a real pleasure to meet Rachna after corresponding so many years and being on the same writers' journey.
