India: I dream of gods and teas and running rivers

"As soon as she landed in India, it seemed to her good, and when she saw the water flowing through the mosque tank, or the Ganges, or the moon caught in the shawl of night with all the other stars, it seemed a beautiful goal and an easy one."
- from A Passage to India, ch. 23, by E.M. Forster

Thanks, Mandy!

Thanks, J, and sorry I haven't written back about India. There's so much to write about I don't know where to start! But I will, and soon.
