As the topic said, spend time in the pool again.... visited a really nice cafe, "natures own", just down the road from the hotel, probably some of the best meals We have had in India so far, takes along time for your order! Really wouldn't want to go there if he's busy.... (one old chef runs it all by himself)...
Later... went into town again.... got a shave... from a local barber... (was my first time)... was cool!! Got no warning when he sprayed water in my eyes!! A few times!! Was good tho...
Watched bits of the cricket NZ vs south Africa.... most of the Indians.... want NZ to win.... you really cannot understand... how crazy they are over cricket here... it's a lot more than a game.... people/kids are playing it EVERYWHERE.... NZ is in the news.... NZ team is pretty famous here... due to there performance....
Everyone is hoping NZ vs India final.... we will see...
Headed off to walk to the top of one of the peaks to watch the sun set, we kinda made a wrong turn.... and had to walk over the holy bridge, (need to take your shoes off), next.... we are given a flower from some strange old guy...) next was 15 mins or so of chanting and pray beside the lake... which the guy added in "you will give $50nzd" I was like "Nope" in the finish... he got 500 rupees... (smallest note I had my friend "J" from the UK, was nailed for 1000 rupee) these guys wanted ALOT more... I was like NOPE... and walked off... finally met up with the rest of the group, with the marks of being scammed.... (holy bits of string around your wrist, and a dot on the head)....
Walked to the top of the mountain... met a cool old guy with a turbin, he was pretty chatty (no English)... think he just enjoyed all the attention! And having his photos taken....
Went back down to find the old timer!! See if he could re-do my turbin.... we found him down the bottom... and probably found the best tea shop in India!
The old guy in Orange! Even tried to sell me his turbin! (As he had spares for 500 rupee)..... didn't want to take away his coolness tho...
See the pictures....
