We left the Concordia Women's Soccer team in Bangkok after spending the day touring Wat Pho & the Grand Palace. The team will fly home Saturday morning with assistant coaches, Betsy & Matt.
Dan & I caught our flight & arrived in Bangalore, India late Friday evening. Concordia alum & friend, Sudhir Selvaraj, met us at the airport with fellow driver, Mahon & took us to our apartment at NGO, Visthar.
We slept well & woke to enjoy breakfast in dining hall, then met again in the morning to ride into Bangalore central. We stopped at pottery town, & Sudhir's new office, then rode with his mother, Mary, to Russell Market, a large fruit, flower, vegetable, toy, & everything market in a large colonial building. Beautiful sights & smells. Traffic & huge population is amazing controlled chaos. We got dropped off at the Commercial road, and walked onto Brigade & MG Rd, got understandably lost but enjoying food & marveling at how a city can double in size over 20 years to 8 million-plus people.
We will leave early tomorrow morning for Mysore, India - a smaller, more Westernized town- to practice yoga, enjoy more food & relax.
