Le Pondicherry

I love Pondy. Explain later...




Sri Aurobindo Ashram. I stayed here while in Pondi. It overlooked the ocean. Amazing, cheap too. I'm going back


Sri Lord Ganesh. You know he was always my favorite even before your influence Tara.


Auroville Beach path with two wonderful Norwegians, Ashild and Lisa


Auroville Beach. Actually a small rideable wave here


Before you send packages, you must get them sewn up in cloth bags. These shops are located near all the post offices. He did a good job, this one got home safe and sound.


This was my best friend in Pondi. I spent hours everyday with this elephant. Such an Amazing creature.


The Rolex Hotel, a fine establishment. All cooking was done on the sidewalk. Everyone looked at me like what are you doing here gora (white foreigner). Was pretty sure it would get me sick but had to do it anyway.


Pondi's west side at an angle.


The intoxicating plumeria, never get enough.


Mean yoga injury. The yoga can get pretty intense here in India



Pondi jetty


The Mother and Sri Aurobindo, both are idealized in Pondi


Concert by the Sea, love this music


Beauty of India


This guy was so proud to play his harmonica for me...through his nose.



Pondi's beautiful rues


Another rue


A blessing from Ganesh


It's going off, Sick!


Boardwalk, lots of fun at night
