Hospet, Karnataka - The highlight of the day was meeting Jackie Chan and then reading about Jeff's ride home. Ouch. What else can I say?
The city of Hampi was phenomenal, it would have been impressive during it's time, covering an area of around 20 square kilometres. We got to sit at the main temple and watch the filming of one scene and get our pictures taken with Jackie Chan and his co-star while we hid from the Indian masses that were descending upon him. For once it was nice to sit back and watch someone else be the spectacle. We (Kev, Lori and I) are happy to report that we have a train booked back to Goa tomorrow, so bus agony can be avoided for one day. We enjoyed the serenity of Goa so much that we decided to return there and hit a beach in the south and meet up with Chris. So soon enough I will be sipping a cool bevie on the beach and forgetting that I am in India. Kev, Lori and I will then head further south to catch our flight to Sri Lanka (hurray!).

That sounds cool. I heard that Jackie Chan is a really nice guy. We picked Jeff up at the airport with a sign that said ma'ame. You guys are a tease making us wait for the goodies. Wow is all I can say about my Kali that you guys found for me. She is beautiful and I can see how you wanted to keep it! You can look at it, it will just cost you 200 rupees! After hearing all of Jeff's stories sounds like Goa will be a needed bit of relaxation. Talk to you soon. Too bad you are missing Thanksgiving but your mom can eat your portion!

That's hilarious... I watched Around the World in 80 Days with him in it on the plane home. Have fun on the beach. :)
