Some additional snaps

Here are a few more photos that wouldn't fit in prior posts (we are limited to attaching 5photos/entry). Here are Ashwin and his beautiful cousin Helen at the wedding, Priya in her school uniform with flowers in her hair, Priya and our lovely cook, Parvathi, making chapatis, and a photo of Prabhu and I going out to celebrate our wedding anniversary (thanks Mom and Don). We went to the Raintree Restaurant at the Taj Connemara here in Chennai. (Taj, the premeir hotel chain here in India, also has an outpost in Boston, formerly known as the Ritz) The Raintree has exquisite South Indian food in the chettinad style (very peppery). It also has a wide variety of wines and mixed drinks, which are available at outrageous prices due to the local taxes on liquor. The amount we spent on dinner was roughly equivalent to the monthly salary for 50% of India($100). Nevertheless, we had a great time.
