Chennai India Travel

The traffic in Chennai, India was better than in Delhi, but still crazy. John was lucky enough to get to sit at the front of the bus next to the driver on our way back home after visiting the Kapaleeswarar Temple.

John got seated at the front of the bus next to the driver on way back to our vacation rental in Chennai, India. We don't know why he got this "special treatment"...maybe because earlier he accidently sat on the wrong side of the bus on our way to Kapaleeswarar Temple.

We didn't even notice that men and women were segregated on different sides of the bus in Chennai. When we first boarded, we stood, but when it was time to take our seats, John sat on the wrong side.
