Pictures

Finally!  Some of the pictures I've taken.  I must be honest, I'm not overly impressed with my pictures.  I usually take at least a day to take photos and I like to take detailed texture shots and such, but no time with a two year old for such pictures.  Most of our pictures this trip were about family and friends and thus will never make it to this blog.

When a building was in the way of expanding the highway they just tear down the offending rooms

Interesting tree in Chennai.  The branches would put off these shoots to the ground to add roots as it expanded.
