Second Day In Mussoorie

Thanks to everyone for the comments. It's nice to know that we still have people back home thinking of us.

Not much going on today. I awoke to the sound of monkeys running across the tin roof of our bedroom. I think that that will prove to be a theme during our stay here. Roxy and I followed the breakfast bell to the kitchen for foods then went back to the room to relax a bit and shower (two mutual exclusive actives here). Here's a shot of the shower to give you a little window into our lives. Don't let the shower head fool you, it doesn't work and we have to bath Indian style: splashing cold water on ourselves from the bucket.

In need of toiletries and other necessities Roxy and I ventured forth with the intention of going into town. Here are some photos from our journey:

There are a ton of stray dogs both here and in Delhi. Roxy found a puppy to make Friends with. She's been threatening to adopt him and take him back to The States with us.

We saw a new kind of monkey. I'm always having this reaction of, "What!? I thought those only lived in zoos." It's stupid but I have this inpression that "Exotic" animals are exotic everywhere.

And finally, here is Mussoorie as we're walking into it.

I'm posting from the webcafe in Mussoorie right now. It's owned by this cool Sikh guy named Bir (Pronounced like "beer"). He has invited us to his place for some chi and badmiton tonight. Just before posting I ordered a custom talored kuta pajama outfit witch should be ready by tomorrow. It only cost 400 Rs (about 8 bucks American). After this I think Roxy and I are going to look for a place to get some lunch down here, as we missed lunch at the hotel.

As always, there are more pictures that I just uploaded to our Flickr acount as well so check those out too.

  1. OMG You look adorable in your outfit Roxy! I want to se pics of the new pajamas as well! Mussoorie seems like a better place than before, at the very least, a bit safer. Bring me a burka.

  2. You mean those animals in the zoo actually come from somewhere? Poppycock, I say!

    It's cool that you guys are making friends with the local population. The clothes look super comfy too, I'm jealous.

    I'll take an extra shower (a real shower), just for you guys.

  4. I WANT MONKEY. Why adopt a puppy when you can adopt a monkey and teach him how to smoke and drink?!
