Welcome to India

So a mere three hour flight and I am in Chennai, the fourth largest city in India (at the time my guide book was written). Having only been on the ground a few hours (long enough to find a place to stay - Paradise GH, and have dinner), I can't say I've formed much of an opinion on the place yet. Quite a bit dirtier than Bangkok but people seem to mind the lanes on the highway, though when you get to an intersection... well... the Lord hates a coward. I'm sure there are rules, they just don't seem to have anything to do with the traffic lights. Lots of the signs are in English, Hindi and what I think is Tamil (b/c Chennai is in the state Tamil Nadu, not because I have any knowledge of the language). I'll post some photos soon - just wanted to let everyone know I'm back on solid earth.
