... rental companies in coimbatore and found very good reviews about them too. So we decided to email them on the mail id provided in their website and got a response pronto. They were reasonable and sounded very professional so we decided to hire the minivan from them and they suggested that we be put up in the jenny club and do a local sightseeing trip for a day. Jenny club again was such revelation. It is one of the best clubs that i have ...

... br>The hotel over the road (Raja Hotel, named and shamed) had cheap rooms, but unfortunately the room we were given had no shower, although it did boast cable TV and a leaking toilet. The final straw came when a huge cockroach ran across the floor. When we asked to change we were told there were no more rooms.<br><br>So we went out and found another hotel, with shower and clean, cheaper than that one, and ...

... the rain doesn't touch!! :o) The people who run this place are all Indians and are happy smiley people...they have a great sense of humor and unlike me they manage to remember my name and I manage to forget all of theirs...but I think I will start writing them down so that I can get my tongue around them all. As far as the other guests there are about 17 in all, majority of them are students taking the yoga teaching training course and are amazingly flexible.... hopefully I will ...

Destination 102: km72'031 In Mysore war mir die Besichtigung des Maharaja Palasts sowie andere Arbeiten ein 3 Tages- Aufenthalt wert. Der Palast war zu prachtvoll um von innen fotografiert zu werden (Verbot). Ansonsten war die Stadt schnell besichtigt. Die Idee den Nagarhole National Park 130km entfernt zu besuchen erwies sich als flop! Durfte nicht mal zum Eingangsgebaeude rein mit dem Motorrad! Dafuer habe ich ...

... far side of the island, across the water are two elephants grazing near the water. The waiter comes by and tells us that once the tour boats leave, they will cross the water, since earlier another part of the herd had crossed.

The tour boats finally leave and then sure enough, the elephants swim across the water to the island just across from ours ...

... through some of the most amazing country I've seen thus far. It's really the perfect description of "going for a Sunday drive". As we took the Mysore Road all the way from Bangalore to Mysore, there were massive plains and farmlands, interspersed with rice fields and sugar cane crops. India is responsible for a large portion of the world's sugar and rice, if you didn't know. You thought it all came from China and Hawaii, didn't you? I did. Did you know that India is a Chinese ...

... chosen by their parents. But nowadays there are more and more marriages out of love. And these are often found on the internet or in newspapers. Reading the classified ads in the newspapers is quite an eye-opener. Most people demand that their partner is from the same or similar caste (with more than 1600 castes that can be a bit tricky) and special importance is put on the biodata and horoscope.

... not comfy), and many many interviews with farmers and villagers, the dams were a wonderful respite. As of this week, I have very little to tell because I was sick. Tuesday I developed a 3 degree fever and went home early. Tuesday night my 'roommate' Alexis woke me up at midnight to tell me she was ill. I spent the whole night up with her while she was really really violently ill ... I felt so badly for her as there was literally nothing we could do to make her feel ...

... s house, grateful of such a great feast and drove back. After a brief rest, we met up with Ranga in the evening, an outgoing chap that had been Suchee's college buddy a few years earlier. "We're gonna get some beers, get some food, and then cruise around Coimbatore tonight. Sound good?" he asked. "Is the pope a catholic?" I replied except I never really. "That sounds good," I said.
