My First CowMy First CowMy First Cow

Actually the ass of it
WoW.
It's been one week only.
I'll start with a story on the first day in Rishikesh we were walking along the Ganga. and i notice a small booth selling cigarettes, and i sew the seller selling those Indian cigarettes we used to smoke at 15, so i wanted some. so i go to the guy asking for them but the guy keep giving Marlboro and such. I guess he never sew a crazy western like me. and then like always in such cases there a small crowd gathering, it was two passing guy that came to "have a look", anyway they kinda got what i wanted and them, they guy gives me one of those Indian cigarette (which are basically a rolled leaf) but when i have offered him a Rupee he refused. A cigarette seller how wish not to be paid.
That's incredible India.
Back in Delhi, we arrived late at night to the Guesthouse. Main Bazar was sleeping and when i say sleeping in mean it literally, hundred of people sleeping on the street, on the roads the sidewalks in their Rikshas. everywhere people sleeping. the following morning what a difference, i one minute of just looking on
Lodi gradens Lodi gradens Lodi gradens

tample in Ldi gardens, Delhi
the street i had more eye stimulation then in a day back home. people car dogs and more people. everywhere people.
on the taxi from the airport i met an guy named Oleg, an Israeli with Russian blood. who is self confession say "I'm a drug pig" (in Hebrew it sounds better".we along very well mainly because he is flowing everything is good for him. so we spend time together and its great fun. after few days in Delhi we took a night ride to rishikesh, to chill a little bit, Rishikesh is where Gorge Harrison came to Meditate and brought the rest of the Beatles with him afterward. so every things is well developed and geared toward western tourism. so I'll leave soon
I'm trying to get a trek trough the mountains at a place called Rupin pass (of all names). to get to Kinour Vally where the Dalai Lama will be teaching on the 8th. we'll see if its possible.
OK that sums my first listing. there's much more to tell but its nicer to get the experiences then to write on them so I'll leave this place and go outside.
peace
