... t understand exactly what was going on. But as we were sitting there, people did chat with us (and some demanded donations, something which Lonely Planet warns you never to do, there are donation buckets) but it was quite interesting to hear people's explanations of the event.

Just as the ceremony ended it began to pour. Thousands of candy colored wrappers, wrapped around families ran out of the rain and into ...

... sound. Arriving in Rishikesh was such a wonderful relief for us both- what a beautiful part of India! The small town is nestled right in the foothills of the Himalayas right on the Ganges river. The people are so colorful, welcoming and friendly. It is definitely still India- don't get me wrong. There were people begging on the street, trash everywhere and cows hanging out in the road, but the feeling was much more peaceful than the feeling in Delhi. The people seemed so calm and ...

... 6 ½ hour drive only this time we took a much more congenial road, passing through the villages, it was less congested, no lorries, no buses just a few cows, donkeys and not forgetting troops of monkeys.... They reminded me of some people I know, ie. Bloody cheeky. The villages were interesting everywhere you went you saw various structures made out of cowdung, all fashioned into perfectly circular bricks ready to be used as fuel for heating ...

... found himself being peppered with a verbal tirade that covered a range of subjects but that basically consisted of my suggesting he lift his head out his book, do what a vet is supposed to do by getting off his **** and helping an animal, rather than counting his money and writing out expensive and seemingly useless prescription. Which worked - to a certain extent. He gingerly stepped outside with his hands stuffed deep inside his pockets, got one of his assistants ...

... tremendous credit our driver Rakesh was working hard to allow our tour vehicle to pass but to no avail. With the crowd chanting 'Kitchen gas!" and "Unity of the village!" (as Ravi interpreted) the situation looked more and more dire and Ravi's occasional exclamation of "Ooooh, my god!" in that wonderfully clipped Indian English wasn't really what I needed to hear so I kept trying to tell myself, "What an adventure, huh?".

With lots of help ...

... his elderly parents from an Ashram about 30 minutes outside of Haridwar. We struck up conversation and before we knew it he had invited us to breakfast and to share his car to the Ashram where he gave us his parent's room free of charge and introduced us to his extended family. This was no small, humble ashram with western tourists doing yoga...this Ashram was more like Hindu Disney complete with faux wooden walkways and hanging ...

... of things (hatha yoga, what we know as yoga in the west, is simply a means of preparing the body for long sessions of meditation, and actually only the initial stage in a more spiritual discipline). It fulfilled my expectations in that regard. After just two weeks, I was feeling so much healthier, externally and internally - the twisting postures do wonders for increasing the blood flow and massaging the abdominal organs, and quickly sorted out the problems I ...
