CJ: International cricket star (or at least a star attraction)

Truth be told, we've been relaxing in south India at the Mirari Sands Wellness Beach Resort. Far from roughing it.



Sophia's friend Isabel is visiting from Hanover. We've all spent a lot of time lounging on or near the beach.


Of course, it's still India, which means one need only stroll 100 yards down the road to find something interesting. Like this guy poking mangos out of a tree.







These guys invited CJ to join their cricket game, where he performed admirably (having bought a cricket set and practiced in our backyard after our last India trip).






All that was during about a one hour walk. Note that Leah is holding a mango. Because when you stop to watch someone picking mangos, of course they will give you one. It's one of the many charming things about India.

  1. essential question: are the local mangos much better tasting than any that are exported our way?
