Mammalapuram

To get to Mammalapuram we took a water logged cab to the airport in Mumbai, got our water bottles stolen by our seatmate on the plane, and then suffered through another cab ride from Chennai to Mammalapuram with a cab driver who got into a fist fight and also tried to kill us by passing into head-on traffic. I also arrived with cold and diarrhea.

But there are lots of things I like about Mammalapuram:
Hundreds of brightly painted boats on the beach
Baby cows everywhere
Mosquito nets (thank god)
Beach front restaurants
More bangles than imaginable. Who wants bangles?

We might go to a crocodile sanctuary later and some temples. Hopefully the crocs arent attracted to the smell of sunscreen and mosquito spray.
