Our sunday afternoon consisted of stationary shopping for Janus' little office, late lunching and then a short little trip to Lalbagh Botanical Gardens. The walk at the garden was like any other walk...but we arrived just a tad bit after the sun had set. We did try taking some pictures even though the sun had set. But while taking pictures there were 2 indian guys, probably in their 40s dressed in jeans and polo shirts. They both started staring at us taking pictures and one of the guy came right behind us and stuck his face inbetween our faces as we looked on our live view mode on our camera. And i tried to give him an evil-youre-in-my-space stare, but that didnt really work. Gah! But its weird how this is something common that happens here, their personal space distance is really tiny or even non-existant. And so when they come into our personal space its just highly uncomfortable. And i really dont like it. It feels intrusive and so wrong. But thats how it is here, so we are the ones that are 'not in line', so to speak.... But we used our stand to get a few really good shots of the evening at Lalbagh lake, where a type of tree is blossoming now. The tree has a fantastic color and it looks abit like its on fire... Pictures will be uploaded soon ;)
After our little walk at the garden, we took a tutuk to Brigade road and found ourselves a pub called Le Rock. We had a cocktail and beer each and also had some nice juicy tandoori chicken. Janus seems to love them - and i am catching up :D The place looked like some hard rock cafe, abit like the late 80s look if i am not wrong. But it was interesting to see and hear what is popular here. Almost all the songs were from the 70s to the 90s, and people were shouting to the lyrics. And its always cool to see the various prototypes there, like the geeky thin guy trying really hard to be cool, the not so thin girl flirting with the geeky guys, the im too cool guy that seems to know everyone working at the club, and so on so forth......
