Visit to Kailasagiri Hill, 30 July 2006
Click on this sentence to see a movie of our trip up the ropeway to the top of the hill.
Some photos
A panorama of the city of Visakhapatnam where the wedding that we attended took place. You can see the top of the ropeway on the right. The beach on the left is Ramakrishna beach. The small mountain in the distance at the center of the photo is called Dolphin's Nose. Because of it's beachfront location, Visak is a busy port for India's navy. Jennifer and I actually saw a submarine off the coast.
The submarine. Click on the photo to see a larger version of it.
These are some of Jennifer's coworkers who went with us after the wedding to visit Kailasagiri. The woman with whom Jennifer works the closest is in the pink in the center.
Kailasagiri is a major tourist and recreational spot in the city. This playground is part of the draw not only for kids but for adults as well.
This giant statue of Shiva and Parvati found on the peak of the hill is part of the attraction. Shiva is the Hindu god of destruction. Parvati is the goddess of love and power.

So nice to be able to see you in pictures. Both of you look great. Jen, you look so slim. Do you like Indian food at all? -Aichou
Hi Aichou,
Good to hear from you. I LOVE Indian food! It's just a lot less greasy and fattening and bad-for-you than a lot of American food is (especially the frozen foods Rock and I tend to live off of!). :o) The other day I went to a Kentucky Fried Chicken out of nostalgia and realized how fattening the food is after not having had it for so long.
