Uneventful?

So after a very pleasent evening with our English friends, and a good midnight puke (yes, my first one....it may have been because I left some of the ice in my drink....i thought I was tough....I am not so tough) we got a late, lazy start this morning. Just as a side note, the south is WAY more laid back than the north. People are not attacking us with the same determination...but also NOTHING is in English, it is ALL in Tamil, which presents a problem, since none of us have even SEEN the language prior to this trip.

Headed to the bus station, found out there were no direct buses to our next destination, Trichy (check out the wiki entry, it has the Tamil "spelling"), and had to take a local bus to Villapuram, which was quite a trip! I mean we had our massive back packs on our laps, and where squished in with people filling the isles and spilling out the doors. And let me tell you, the Indian (even the ones sitting right next to you) are not shy about STARING! So that hour long trip was crazy, hindu techno music blaring, flashing neon Ganeshes, and bangles hanging from everywhere....

But eventually we arrived in Trichy, honestly with very little eventfulness....and honestly, we are all kind of nervious. Nothing is ever that simple...where is the hassel, the challange, the unasked for adventure....Honestly, what is India doing to us to make us think this way!

For some pictures of what we are going to see tomorrow and in the next few days, take a look at my southern india post from earlier.
