1 week left

~2 weeks down, 1 to go. Time is really going by quite fast, being busy is probably helping that along. I could really go for a burger and a class of chocolate milk about now. More pictures are up if you want to dig for them.

Bannerghatta National Park

Took a trip up to >Bannerghatta National Park today. Since we were a bit early for park tours and the zoo opening we talked through the near by village. They have wild monkeys that run around, which is kinda fun, but a creature capable of fling poo sitting in the trees above me was a bit distracting. Apparently the village has the occasional problem of elephants wandering out of the park and eating their crops.

The Bannerghatta Zoo was pretty disgusting. They had a ton of snakes pits with chain link fence around them - somehow I doubt the chain link fence if the snake was able to get near the edge of the pit. Since the pits have trees in them it was a bit odd.

The safari ride was mostly fun. The part of the forest was fenced in where the animals pretty much roam free. The safari driver was nice enough to take pictures for anyone if you couldn't get a good shot from your chair, but he usually forgot to wait the second it takes the auto focus to kick in, so most of those pictures are blurred and crappy.

On the way back I had lunch at a very upscale Indian restaurant. I had some chicken kebobs where are served on a sword and some other spicy chicken and lamb stuff. The kabobs were great, but what really surprised me was the freshly made Naan bread. I have a bunch of recipes for Naan, but never bothered to make it; I'll have to start.

As always more pictures are up. There'll be more when my battery recharges.
