Early morning traffic. Note the quantity of auto rickshaws, the license plates of which all seemed to begin, ominously, with KA⋅05 (in some goofy handpainted font so it would look like KAOS).
Long pods on a tree next to the hotel.
Short pods on a tree on the opposite side of the hotel from the previous tree.
These trees were all over Bangalore. Unfortunately, i couldn't get a better picture.
The Karnataka High Court building. Bangalore is the capital of the state of Karnataka (kar-NA-ta-ka).
The High Court, again, plus tourists.
This tree on the side of the High Court building was huge. Unfortunately, foliage blocked the trunk.
The Vidhana Soudha, the Karnataka state legislature building, sits opposite the High Court.
The Vidhana Soudha.
Gowda and his faithful iron steed. Gowda knew exactly how long and wide his car was, and he used this knowledge to a margin of error that would make most Americans wet their pants. On Wednesday, he took me out to do a little sightseeing, during which i saw many of the things above and also purchased my wife's sari.
