First class sleeper!

I took the first class train from Amritsar to Haridwar. Just so you wont be too jelouse: this is what a first class cart looks like.

traffic jam

The small road between the two Rishikesh bridges is sometimes blocked with heavy traffic

I wanna hold your hand...

In India you see a lot of men holding hands or cuddeling, it doesnt really mean anything. You can even see cops walking pinky in pinky - how cute!

Waterfalls

there are lovely waterfalls around Rishikesh. No cable car this time, we had to climb :(

The truck driver that gave us a ride to the falls.

Busy man

There are several shrines for diffewrent deities in the Haridwar temple, and the people walk between them, get a blessing and a tikka on the forehead. This guy kept giving blessings and tikkas with one hand, while chatting on his mobile.

Sharpenning knives

the faster you pedal - the sharper the knives will be.

Early Purim

You can rent a costume and have your picture taken in the temple. Did i already mention Indians LOVE to take pictures?

The best cookies in the word!

the most delicious butter cookies you can imagine, for 10 rupees only!
