Bangalore



Our impressions of Bangalore were vastly different to the rest of India. Already we could see that the South was gonna be a lot more relaxed than the North. The impression had nothing to do with the fact that we were able to enjoy comfy beds and lovely homecooked food at the friends relatives we were staying at (H's parents for those who know). As soon as we were picked up from the airport by our host in the air conditioned car and greeted with sweets and snacks we knew we were going to enjoy Bangalore.
The next day we were given the chauffeur driven car and taken on a tour of Bangalore's best sights including Vidhana Saudha (the secretariat of State) and lots of random parks. After being treated to lovely meals out at BBQ nation (yum) and other restaurents we were painting the town red again, this time with the 'Bangalore playboys'. An interesting mix of people but a rather fun night out. One the boys, who cannot be named for legal reasons (haha) was driving the other car while swigging a bottle of Whiskey. After spending 4 days with home comforts we didn't want to leave but sadly thought it was best to push on, to explore more of Karnataka.
