Kovalam

After driving us to Pondicherry, Johnson slept in his car so that the next night we would have a ride home. On our journey back up to Chennai before we left, he took us to his home in Kovalam to meet his family and have tea.

Johnson had two of the cutest little kids I have ever seen. I gave a shark tooth necklace that I had bought from the gypsy to his little boy. His wife made us some delicious marsala tea. Their hospitality is representative of many of the places we have been. Would a taxi driver in America ever take you by his house to meet his family? It really is amazing how kind and welcoming people are to us.
