Rajtilak Continental Hotel Bhopal

Greetings one last time from Bhopal, the city where you may remember, in 1983 there was a gas leak that affected 25,000 people of which 3000 died. It came from a battery making plant which was subsequently cleared away completely. Some of those who were affected are still being treated for their ailments 26 years later.<br><br>We are excited by the way the Indian men are taking ownership of the Emmaus ministry.

We had an organizational and sightseeing day in Bhopal on Monday, the Hindu day off. Jim spent the morning in a committee meeting with the new Emmaus Ministries India Board setting the agenda for the conference. In the afternoon 5 of us squeezed into a Renault Logan taxi (along with the driver) to do some sightseeing and shopping. <br><br>Bhopal is a city built around two lakes and we went to the lake shore of one where there were many families enjoying an ...

Then I realized...we were walking through an outdoor public toilet! With agile steps we made it and on the way back crossed to the other side of the street.

We arrived in Bhopal by train in the middle of the day. The trains in India are quite remarkable - efficient, well connected, run often. The train stations on the other hand usually leave much to be desired. Bhopal's was no exception. In an attempt to avoid the hoard of touts (rickshaw lady? where you going? cheap hotel?), we raced out of the station and started walking to our hotel ...

... buda para nao usar sua imagem. ele pediu isso para evitar idolatria mas nao deu certo. nao demorou muito para eles desrespeitarem isso. e mesmo antes disso eles usavam outros simbolos q representam o Buda. nesse caso, essa "arvore" no topo da stupa representa o buda.

... longer, I'd lost all feeling in my ****. Madhya Pradesh is notorious for its bad roads but they're clearly doing something about it because we were travelling through roadworks for most of the way, it was bumpy and extremely dusty. We stopped in small towns and villages that were absolutely choked in dust. A bitumen road will make a difference to these peoples lives.

Entertained to a dawn chorus of several nearby mosques with the call to prayer, then the raucous temple bells and singing, followed by the rather more tuneful Sikh morning prayers in the Gudwara below my window, I was all set to go out to Sanchi for some peace and quiet.

Three hours later, I ventured into the outside din and found the right bus ...
