| Room #108, Hanuman Ghat Hotel |
I awoke to the sound of rain falling with Toulouse cuddled by my side. My new room, I changed hotels yesterday, has screened windows on 2 sides as I have the room on the top floor corner. I get a view of the lake on one side and the temple on the other...life is good! Now the rain has stopped, I walked he dog, and am waiting in the restaurant for my milk coffee and papaya porridge. Shared a table and conversation with Lin from China. Unfortunately, she is getting ready to check out and is on her way to Mumbai tonight on the night train.
It is still drizzling rain and of course, Toulouse had to go out the minute I got back. I am so glad I brought an umbrella. They are putting a flat screen in today and taking this large dinosaur of a TV they just put in here, out. That will free up the entire corner of the room and with all this luggage, I could use the space.
I am so thrilled with the new battery I got for this netbook - the charge lasts 6 1/2 hours, and with a modem stick I am good when the power cut happens and can still use the internet. Speaking of which, the grid for northern India had an outage that affected the entire northern part of India, 22 states, including Rajasthan. It went out a 2:30am yesterday and didn't come back on until late afternoon. It was like a steam bath in the room. I was glad to be checking out.
