Being blessed by an elephant and climbing 675 steps !!

Today we went to see yet another temple, but this time the highlight being blessed by an elephant! It was quite funny as a local Indian could give the elephant 1 rupee in exchange for a blessing by the elephant, but a tourist has to give at least 10 rupees, aka a note instead...

11 hour car journey

This morning we went to see the palace during the day but it was nowhere near as amazing as seeing it all lit up at night. Then as our friend Reggie really wanted to go and visit Hampi she hired a car to take us there and for a very small bargain Price we joined her!...

90,000 lights

This morning we woke up and caught a 7 hour bus to Mysore to see the Palace all lit up. Every Sunday evening they turn 90,000 on all over the palace grounds and it was pretty amazing!

Chillaxing on a deserted beach

Today the 3 of us had a great time walking bare-foot along the deserted beach and swimming in the sea for the majority of the day before heading to the travel agents to sort out train tickets for the rest of our stay in India. This proved to be a lot more difficult than first...
