Cotton Candy



A wonderful thing about living in a tourist town is that there are often street vendors selling snack food along the side of the road. Often they'll have fresh carrots, deep fried peppers and bananas, roasted corn on the cob (not sweet corn, unfortunately), sugar cane juice, or (our favorite) COTTON CANDY!! Now don't worry, this isn't some strange Indian version - it's the real thing, and it's makes this entire family very happy for right around $1!

Doddabetta

A couple of weeks ago we went up to Doddabetta, which is the highest mountain in the Nilgiri Hills (the area where we live). The views from the telescope house at the peak were beautiful, and even though it was pretty windy at the top, we had a great time!
