Where mammals convene before roiling waves, to sniff each other out, to snack on ocean air and spotted leaves.
Jungle jaunt
Just outside our casa de flores, we march through a river, climb a slippery hump of a hill through monkey clad banyan trees and dive into the remains of a waterfall's chilly tendrils.
The very first email I ever sent
September 17, 1998
Dear Family,
We are in the dirtiest city I have ever seen in my life - Bombay. However, it is incredible. Um, the plane ride was long, but we got a lot of free food and a pair of slippers to keep our toes warm. Everything is extremely cheap here. The air smells of fish, poop, cows, incense and curry. It's zesty. We are having a great time so far. Tomorrow we are going to take the train to Rajasthan. It should be less chaotic there. Other than that we're fine and healthy and sleeping well. Please inform everybody of our safe arrival, and please e-mail me at this email address.
We will be in Jaipur in a few days.
I love you,
FF
