Merry Christmas from Thailand!!

Merry Christmas 2010 from Koh Samui, Thailand

Christmas Day at the Beach Republic Resort, Koh Samui

We are having a blue Christmas in many ways... first and most importantly, we are away from our family and friends that make the Christmas season such a cherished one.  Also, we are in Thailand surrounded by turquoise blue water and skies.

We send our love and wishes of peace & joy for a wonderful Christmas holiday!

Old Delhi Outing

Old Delhi at dusk

We first ventured into Old Delhi on a Sunday afternoon by ourselves and decided that the next time we went, we needed a guide.  A coworker of mine organized a field trip to Old Delhi to visit a school-supply store.  A cab and metro ride later, we walked out onto the crowded street.  Wires criss-crossed over our heads.  Cramped stalls and vendors lined the streets.  "This is the India I had imagined," we both said to ourselves.  It was dizzying and intriguing all at once.  Here are a few snapshots and photos.
