It's been a while since the last blog update, mainly because all my time in front of a computer has been spent on University work (finally done with the Philosophy of Mind course! Yay!).
Anyway, so what's happened since Mamallapuram?
First off Tiruvanammalai; city of Fire. Nice temple but way more pollution than what ought to be the case for such a small town.
Crossed the state border into Karnataka going to Bangalore; which really feels like a big city (more so than Delhi) with the gleaming glass fascades of commercial buildings and traffic jams. Basically I just got off the bus and decided "I can't deal with all this right now" and simply hopped aboard the next bus to Mysore. Ended up staying there for four nights as it turned out to be a pretty good place to study.
Just got to Hampi early this morning after taking the night bus from Mysore, and man am I exhausted! (terribly bumpy roads make for no sleep) I really should have got some rest before setting out to explore the temples and partaking in the Holi celebrations. (BTW, that color really is hard to get off! My back is still blue and my hair has a slightly pinkish tone)
Anyways, high time for a few more photo uploads:
