There were so many funny things that were said we started writing them down on Day 3.  Many of them were hysterically funny at the time.  Perhaps you just had to be there, though?

• Sarah and Alicia yell enthusiastically, “PIG!”  Tara says, “Ah…you see a tiger?”  We say, “No, a pig!”  Tara laughs.
• “OH YEAH!  Remember when we went to Switzerland?”  -Sarah, spoken while going through the pictures on her camera.
• “Look at this idiot stopping at a red light!”  – Tara
• “I don’t think this is a green bean!” – Alicia, spoken as she was eating a hot pepper.
• “It’s built in air conditioning!” -Driver of the elephant says in reference to getting sprayed with elephant saliva.
• “Oops!”  – Ben, after he walked into a glass door.
• “ATM not working.  You did a good job.  Thank you.  Bye bye!” -Tara to Pareek
• Ben says to Tara, “Is this the airport already? Wow.  You are a good driver!”  Tara says to Ben, “You count the money!”
• “There’s a cow.  Boy, we sure haven’t seen a cow in a while!” -Alicia (there were animals everywhere in the north but much less in Hyderabad.)
• “Can you hold onto me because sometimes I do crazy things for pictures.” -Alicia, spoken to Ben as Alicia leans out of the door of a moving train to get a picture.
• “We take care of it for you.  We arrange it.  No problem!”  -Ben, spoken while doing Indian head bob and hand gestures.
• “Let’s go get drinks…..I mean….at the bar….” – Alicia, spoken as she walks up to door while Mike is on phone with Matt Hodges.
• “WHAT?  Why do only the guys get massages.”  -Sarah, spoken in reply to Mike’s comment “We get massages in our lounge but I don’t think you guys do.”  He was referring to Ben and I.  We laughed so hard we cried.
• “Uh…I’m so tired.  It’s hard being famous.”  -Sarah, spoken after getting into the cars at the Ellora Caves where everyone wanted a picture with us.
• “Third times the charm!”  -Mike, spoken on his third time through security in Aurangabad and spoken on his third attempt at booking a hotel in Mumbai.
