The wife has booked our December vacation and the winner is...
India!
Things I have learned so far:
1) Air Canada has a direct flight from YVR to Delhi which is only 14 hours. Awesome.
2) We're going to two national parks so the chances of seeing a tiger and leopard are pretty good.
3) The Taj Mahal is being renovated and is surrounded by more garbage than I can find in the bush in redneckville next to where I live.
4) Wife wants to go to a Kama Sutra temple! My wife is also a yoga instructor so ooh la la! Chakra checking time....
5) We will probably be eating too much vegetarian but that's ok because India has the best vegetarian food.
6) We will probably be dry at various times - I am concerned that the accumulated hangover may kill us...
7) We are going for 30 days which is a long long time to use squat toilets.
8 )In the south we visit: Kochi, Kalpetta, Mudumalai, Mysore, Mamallapuram, Puducherry, Madurai, Alleppey.
9) In the north we visit: Delhi, Varanasi, Khajuraho, Agra, Ranthambore, Jaipur, Rawla Jojawar, Udaipur.
Should be a grand adventure.
