Things we have been grateful for on this trip:
Incredibly kind people. Indian people are curious, want to talk, want to help, want you to get what you need. There are a few exceptions, but that is true anywhere. I believe that we get much kinder treatment here than a tourist couple from India wandering around in the US.

Food food food. Every place we eat is wonderful. Even scary places that don't adhere to the germ theory. Today we went to this fancier place in a hotel restaurant for lunch--thali style-- little amounts of lots of things. It was less than $10 for the whole bill. They were like Jewish grandmothers and kept trying to give us more food even though we could barely breathe (like after Thanksgiving dinner).
Bosses who let me take this trip. Not having to read drafts of policy. : )
Amazing ancient stuff to see everywhere. There are ruins and temples everywhere. Now we are kind of picky about what we will go see, as it is overwhelming.
And of course, our family and friends who are back home.
We hope you all have good Thanksgivings in the cold weather.
