Hi guys. I know that this is a really early entry but i thought I may as well because the place we are staying in has free internet access for us. Got here about 10 in the morning today, had quite a nice flight, it went really quickly. It was about 25 C when we got in so it was pleasantly hot, but there was a nice breeze. We got picked up from the airport and the driving is so different to the UK. Everyone is so horn happy and no one sticks to the lane. To sum it up, the car we were in had no wing mirrors. No exaggeration. The place we are staying in tonight is very nice, a bed each and it is 5 star apparently. We went out to see the local area and it is so strange, a real culture shock. Everyone asking you if you want to buy something, kids prodding you asking you for money. You don't look at a stall too long cos before you know it the person is pulling you in, talking to your ear and making it very hard to leave. But i really like it, strangely i really like the city, whether that will change i dont know., i bought my first purchase, some nail clippers off a guy who walks round with a board full of kinives etc on his back. All day he just walks round. I barterd him down to 15 rupees, about 20 p, but i have a feeling i still got ripped off.
Anyway that is enough for now, I will put pictures up at some point but i felt a bit dodgy getting my shiny camera out in the middle of the street. Didnt wanna get mugged on my first day. xxxx
