I'm sorry I can't get your ring off! Really, I let him keep it. It was just a small silver ring. The Toda people are not beggers and I gave him the ring to try on when he seemed fascinated by it. It really was a toe ring with a dangle which I wore on my finger.

camelgirl, I dress like that now the way you're dressed in the picture! I assume you're the one with the bandana on your head? or did you take the picture?

love the pic!

Thanks Yogagal! Yup, that's me in the bandana, 20 pounds and 30 years ago. I wish I still looked like that!

Alphabar, lunghi as shawl!

The Toda were the neatest looking people I ever saw in India. I wish I had a photo of the women, who also had a very distinctive appearance. That have their own distinctive culture, they are not Hindu or anything else, they have their own religious believes and that thing behind us is a holy place we were not permitted to enter. I recently read there are only about 1,000 left in the Nilgiri hills.
