Mysore
We started our journey with a bit of a bumpy nightbus, and arrived in Myosre around eight am. I've never experieneced such a bumpy bussride and got no sleep at all..
We arrived around eight in the morning, checked in at Parklane hotel, freshed up, had breakfast and started to explore what Mysore had to offer!
Mysore Palace - I could live here... The decorated walls and roofs was amazing, showing pictures of Hindu Gods and their relations between one another. I believe I wouldn't mind being seduced by the discussed Lord Shiva who is said to be a fairly good lover;)
We had some problems with the autodrivers though who, very skillful, tried to convince us about places we wanted to go, how much they payed to take us there etc. Gooosh, Sree really got to see my agry side while dealing and our attempt of NOT dealing with the auto drivers..
On Srees birthday we hired an auto guy for the whole day who took us to the Somnathpur Temple, some shoping, the Zoo and dinner at Element Bistro which was a very cozy, non-indian restaurant that random provided books for reading and had a small shop - a perfect meeting point for travelers!
The next day we visited Devaraja market which all the auto drivers had told us NOT to visit. But ey, it wa such an "indian" market:)
Namaskara:)
