The folks at work took me out to this local breakfast place.

It was very popular! People just kept coming in...

The white stuff is idly, made from steamed rice and lentils, and the donut-looking thing is vada. The green sauce is chutney (I think?) and they were both quite good!

Another view from in front of my hotel. The traffic, it is bad.

For Snack Thursday, someone brought on...McDonalds. I vaguely thought I was being punk'd or something.

Saw this wandering around town - apparently it's totally legal to ask for women receptionists and tele-callers?

Right next to the part was this "Integrated Citizen Service Centre". I think it was for registering to vote and stuff like that.

I'm on my way home! There were birds roaming around in the Bangalore airport.

There's a Harrods at London's Heathrow Airport, complete with a giant stuffed teddy bear :-)

The guy in front of me on the LHR->ORD flight started snapping pictures out the window, which seemed like a great idea. Pretty clouds!

More pretty clouds!

O'Hare airport has the "Cubs Bar and Grill" with a replica of the famous Wrigley field sign.
