Happy Thanksgiving, folks. To those of you in the US of A: Eat some turducken for your old uncle Newley in Siam. (To mis amigos y familia in South Carolina, Oregon, and all along the eastern seaboard: tuck into some deep fried turkey in my name. And to my aunt Cee Cee in Beaufort: my heart weeps for your pecan pie.)
Anywho, on to the main business at hand — and it is something special indeed: A and I just returned to Bangkok after a two-week sojourn in northeast India. We were in Kolkata (Calcutta) for five days, then in Darjeeling and Gangkok.
Below are my 10 favorite images from the trip. I can only hope that they come close to conveying the vibrancy of this region of the country.
