This Is India (TII)

---

One of our catch-phrases here is "TII" to stand for "This is India."

We just had a TII moment...

We were in Bangalore city for the weekend, and had to head home this evening. We found a lovely auto-rickshaw driver who would give us the meter fare, and was even willing to drive us ALL the way home! Usually this trip requires you to change rickshaw's twice, to put this into perspective. He was even willing to wait for us to finish dinner before driving us the final leg home. Top Bloke.

Except....there was one small problem...

His headlight was broken.

Like kaput. Out. Gone.

Oops.

Rural India. Rough roads. Speed bumps. Darkness.

Thankfully I had my teeny tiny torch on me (It's smaller than my pinky and puts out about 10 lumes). So for most of the trip home, I was half hanging out of the rickshaw, pointing this tiny flashlight at the road!

Only in India!
