Random pics

This is MG Road. Traffic on this road is crazy, ridiculous, etc. They have decided to put an elevated railroad right down the middle of it. Makes sense to me.
I love that the scaffolding is made of wood

And yes, it is great to be here! Note the temple in the background.

Thursday night we had dinner at Ginseng at the Royal Orchid Hotel. Probably some of the best oriental food I've ever eaten. It seems like everything at our local Hudson take out tastes the same. Not here. Each dish was delicious, with such great subtle flavors. The waiter of course had perfect timing in serving my food.
And finally, I love the signs here:
And of course stating the obvious with a star!

Some Photo's For a Friday

While I have been busy putting my experience into words, I have failed to show pictures of Bangalore. This is probably what everyone wants anyway, so here are some photos for your viewing pleasure.

Cheryl insisted we go for a tuk tuk ride on our way to sightseeing/shopping. Note how close the car is to us.

This is a view of the shopping area near MG (Mahatma Gandhi) Road and Commercial Street.

100 Rupee ($2.50) fine if you really need to go. It is not uncommon to see gentleman relieving themselves on the side of the road. Watch your step.

In the foodcourt of the building we are in. Makes sense to me!

View from my hotel window. Lots of activy on the roof. Not sure if you can see the hanging clothes. Also note the rebar on the roof line. Not sure if they forgot to finish the building , or if they are lightning rods.
