Trains in India get disinfected less than once a month.. mmmm tasty
Um so i was still on the train. I woke with the sounds of "BREAKFAST, BREAKFAST' and so i worke up and they told me DOSA OR BLAH BLAH BLAH, i was half sleeping so i said dosa. and then it comes, and it's the work freakin goo of a dosa i've ever had. so sad so sad.
i was on the train most of the day, actually all day, got out at around 7. so nothing really to report. saw an elehpant on the way, and many cockroaches were hanging out when we were playing cards. i love it how indian men love to just stare, not a okay i'll take a peek and then look away, it's like a never ending staring competions, and i'm not playing.. sheeshka bob.
There was a fun game of musical chairs in the beginging, only in india can the conductor sell sold tickets to people. so when the real people showed up they were all screwed... oh well. thats life.
So we finnaly got out of the freaking train. and hopped on an Auto-rikshaw. almost 20 times were we in deadly accident situations. a guy on a bike with a girl on the back almost fell off. So that was kind of adventuroes. mmm spelling mistake. oh well. So got setteled in a sweet place, went out for some grub, and hmmm pretty much everything was closed cept like 3 places. So we went to a divy place called salt-n-pepper. they were egging us on to have some beer(but really hush hush like) so we ordered a bottle of beer, and we looked around and noone else was drinking beer, when the guy came back, he brought a tea pot. they were serving beer in tea pots because it was dry for 2 days due to a statewide election. so we drank our beer out of a tea pot.. oh man only in india, i'm going to shorten that to (oii) only.in.india
we left that place and had some food at this other joint, and as we looked around it seemed like the entire coach of the train that we were in seemed to have come to the same place, yeesssss lonely planet people we were. every single person in our coach was at this resturant. so that was very uneventful.
next up, bikes and more
