Hey how is every one well i am now currently in Varanasi checking out the ganjus. We arrived yesterday at 11:00 as our train was slightly late we were picked up by a Tut tut which is a three wheeled vehicle which was a bit of a joke considering we had 2 packs the size of small people and this thing is built to only carry 2 people at a push 3 so this meant that we were sitting in the back of this thing with our knees around our ears cruzing around the roads in the wrong lane etc you can only Imagen what was going thorough our heads as we sat there watching this mayhem take place in front of us.
Any ways not to worry we arrived safe and sound after about 30mins of this. then we had the task of walking another 30mins with are huge pack through these narrow streets towards the hotel. Once we finally arrived at the hotel we dropped our pack in the room and headed for the bar. For food and beer as we deserved it by this point. We chilled and chatted to some people especially some Danish birds that were there who have been traveling for about 6 weeks. We planed to meet them later for a drink and a game of Uno well when i say we i actually mean me really.
we found out in the lonely planet (bible) that there was a hotel that had a swimming pool near so we went to check that out which was such a welcome brake from the hot sweaty heat we also had a massage there also what one weired experience i never wont to repeat again.
Anyways today we have been to the train station to book our ticket to Agra so that we can leave on Sunday. As there is not a grate amount of things to do here. Also we went to a silk factory so see pashminas and scarfs and saris fabrics made it was amazing we felt obliged to by some of this beautiful hand made stuff. right now we are in the bar but In about 30mins we are going to have a bout ride down the ganjis that should be fun any ways thats just a quick update speak soon
love
John
