August 15 - We took a day trip to a nearby city called Mysore. It was a busy, packed day, but we saw some really cool stuff. Mysore is marked on the map above. We are having trouble uploading pictures right now, but we got a few of them posted below!
A few thoughts: We have been very lucky with the weather! Mild days with no rain until the ride from Mysore back to Bangalore. It rained all day for the next two days, but it was okay because we stayed indoors. Mostly planning and organizing our trip for the next couple of weeks and updating the blog.
August 16 - We went out on the town to... Hard Rock Cafe. I know, I know! It was actually a funny feeling being inside. It was familiar, very American, and we were able to take a little break from the busy streets of Bangalore. I was insistent on going out to a club, since Bangalore is known for its nightlife. I didn't care that it was a Tuesday, I wanted to get my dance on! Vidya and Rob obliged and we ended up at a place called Club Fusion. As we walked through the doors, we felt like we were teleported to Bangkok. There were only Far East Asian people there! We wondered if they are students at a nearby school. The DJs were playing all the latest club hits and we had a blast. Unfortunately, all bars/clubs in Bangalore close at 11:30. It was short lived, but a lot of fun. As a lady, I really enjoyed that part of the dance floor had a strict "single ladies and couples only" policy. Not so great for the single guy, but it was nice to know that there are places in the world where you can get your dance on without being groped by strangers. :)
