Incredible India

not much use this time, but one day it will
I haven't blogged for quite sometime now. Many things happened.
This is one of them: I FINALLY VISITED INDIA end of last month
Not for pilgrimage, it's for work so we spent days for factories visits. But we managed to squeeze some fun time in it.
I dunno if the company has treated us very well, or India is really nice; I mean people said India is a very dirty and smelly country, I didn't see much evidences there. The country is so beautiful... and people are nice too.
I have to admit that they've put us into 5-star hotel, but there was 1 night where we stayed at not-so-starry hotel, and it was fine. Maybe I have a lousy standard, anyway.
Taj Mahal, Agra
barefooted in Jaipur. The top right pic: tat's before I was getting soaked
It was a crazy bloody hot day when we visited Jantar Mantar - an outdoor astrological museum of Jaipur, and all of the sudden it started to rain. None were prepared for the heavy pour, and just in minutes the street were flooded. Rather than sacrificing my sandals (which will be hell to dry), and the gushing water seems so clean!!!, I took my chance: walking barefoot on the street of Jaipur! How legendary was that.
Anyway, we actually revisited the site in the afternoon when the sun was back. And I finally realised the street wasn't that clean afterall (there were the holy cows, goats, and dogs' leftovers).
Oh, well... it's done, and I survived.

India, I'll be back!
