Getting Around in India


India is one of the few places I have been that lives up to its reputation. In the 9 days we spent there, I saw elephants, monkeys, dogs, and even camels on the streets. The mode of transportation of the majority of the people is walking. When an Indian increases in socioeconomic status, he buys a bicycle. A little more money means an Indian buys a motorcycle. Only those in the upper class can afford cars. Camels, like this one here, are used for hauling items.
