two not very exciting days.

Yesterday was basically two very long bus rides because we missed one of our trains.. we thought we booked our ticket for the 17th, but we did the 16th.. or maybe we just didnt know what day it was... that happens sometimes. so we took a 5 hour bus to mangalore, and then a 5 hour bus to kompta, and then a one hour bus to gokarna. i did a lot of thinking. as well, one man thought his hand belonged on my lap! i dont think so sir!!! so i moved and was bitter. we found our hotel after a few back allies, and tons of cows. the bed was hard, but i didnt realy notice because i fell sound asleep.
today we just went to the beach. the water wsa really warm and salty! it was nice to just relax. we ate at this cute cafe thing and then relaxed some more. we got a little lost on the way back, and walked on some volcanic ashes i think. it was neat. jody is feeling really sick so she stayed in tonight. julie and i hit up the markets. i got some sweet clothes for like 3 bucks i a piece. i love indian shopping! well, i should head for supper. later!

Hey Cass... your adventure in India is cathartic... I am loving the unbridled adventure of your journey... the sights, the sounds, the smells, the tastes... the massage??? I am living this thing vicariously thru you. You are at a place where the physical and the spiritual are becoming entangled... meshing at times... challenging you at other times... as life should be. I could be really jealous if I let myself... even with the "less than stellar" washroom facilities... instead I celebrate with you from this side of the ocean. Drink it in Lil Sis. I am walking with you from this continent. By the way, just what is a paper thong? Doesn't sound practical. Blog on!
