Bangalore - and what I HAVE TO take to India?
Hi folks!
I will be leaving for Bangalore on Monday. I have my anti-malaria tablets, my mosquito-off, my stomach-tablets. What else should I take? I plan og getting one or two Salwar Khamees on the first day there, as I understand that gives you a better chance of walking around undisturbed. Hubby will be in meetings for 3 days, and then we have 3 days off - though on Sunday, our flight goes very late night, so we will spend that day close to the hotell or even just in it relaxing and packing. We think we will rent a car with driver and do a day-trip to Mysore. Other than that, we don't have any special plans at the moment - but are open to suggestions. I will have 3 days mostly on my own in Bangalore. I plan on staying IN the city. I like pottery and would love to see some being made. Have read barely about a specialist pottery village near Bangalore, and would love to go see that, if possible. I also like people-watching - if anyone has suggestions for a good cafe where I can have a coffee or tea and people-watch for a couple of hours - bring it on! Hubby is an avid photographer, so if there are any good places near Bangalore to go take wonderful pictures - of the landscapes or of the people and the life - let me know, please! Okay - that should about cover my questions. Oh, yes, we have updated all our vaccines now, so that should be OK. Looking forward to reading from you! Marianne |

writes: open to suggestions. Bangalore isn't much to see although it does have great food. However, it is a good base for seeing one of the more spectacular states in India. There is so much to see that only a guidebook can do it justice. My favorites were Hampi and Badami on my last trip but there are tons more to see. What to take is very personal but I might suggest a light nylon net. Enjoy, I sure would like to go back again. edwardseco |

Don't think you need to go all the way to Bangalore though - plenty of, um, adult interest groups in New York or San Francisco. miguel -- Hit The Road!

Ha, ha, we do get a bit "inside" in our terminology after a while. I agree about the locales. However, one of my vendors from San Fransisco is a bit bent out of shape after a court ruling went against the couple. My relationship with them is more straight. On a side note, I understand India does have good fishing. Its not my thing but I have been desperate for prawns because so much is shipped abroad. Its a thought. Also, someone once said we should always take a safety net when travellin, a good sense of humor. That is the one that I have most often found the need for. Cheers, edwardseco edwardseco |
