Second Day in India

Helloooo
Am here for my second day after much confusion about setting up the blog.
Yesterday was amazing, although really tiring and the culture change seemed abit too much. I also found it hard with the time difference which meant Riins and I spent most of the early hours of the morning sitting out in the YMC garden.
Got up today at about 8-9ish for a breakfast of vegatable curry and japatis (think thats spelt alright.) The rest of the group, went sight seeing for he day, Julie, Riina and I went shopping in the local market. Was a real eye opener and bought a lot of really nice stuff. I also really got into bartering, and was surprised when something actually came with a fixed price.
Managed (with m ainly Julie's help) to get some sunglasses down from 750 rupees down to 200 - BARGAIN! Alsoo bought some lovely hangmade leather shoes. And some nice clothes, we are all off to the Imperial Hotel for high tea, which i am looking forward to, i shall also have to take advantage of using a flushing toilet!!!
Am still quite tired, but alot better than i was yesterday, hopefully my sleeping pattern will sort itself out after today.
Anyway i best be off
