On the way back on the bus first the guy made me pay 15 Rupees when I paid 9 to get there, I tried to explain but he could not understand so I just let it go but randomly gave me 2 Rupees back - Strange.

Now, on the ...

... Google him and, while no journal article popped up, there was a newspaper article from a year ago in which teachers and principals in the provinces complained that they could not get textbooks and teaching guides because the publications department that he heads up was over-capacity and could not keep up with orders (article's title is Lambs To the Slaughter in Education Department Mess, April 2008). When interviewed for the article, the deputy general ...

... buried with the species names (loggerhead, green, and something else) and expected hatching dates, and when the workers disturbed the sand pile with our date, they revealed baby turtles that had just come out of their shells (or a very good special effect). Another pool had a rare albino loggerhead as big as a manhole cover, although they're not generally used as manhole covers. The owner told us a story in his broken English about how when the ...

... the cameras and hippo all stayed dry. There was a definitely look of fear in the guides eyes as they spotted the wave coming towards us.
