City Update...

Bangalore is officially the worst city I have ever visited for traffic add to this the extreme charges from rickshaw drivers and their inability to drive you to the destination you want and it's all about right!

We had a driver today who thought it was a great idea to add a few KM's to the journey by weaving us through the side streets - when we complained he pulled over and demanded an extra 20rs (about 10p!) we argued and he got angry so we paid and ran away!

The pollution is just as bad too and I have had to duck for cover from clouds of dust as well as wipe my forehead to get rid of a horrible orange dust that settles on me each day.

A few other nit picks...are street children who don't understand the word "No" and one child who thought he could just hang of my knee....wtf :)

Finally the fruits, flowers and everything else about the city are amazing....I'm having a great time :)
