Today was a much more mellow day. Got up late and had a small breakfast. We went back into town and browsed the food market. It was packet and noisy and smelled like India. How I will miss these places.
We got some refreshing drinks at some grassroots kinda place. I got a lassi, which is a milk and curd mixture. It is kinda like a yougurt milx shake, with ice. It was ok. Kinda thing not recommended to try, but you have to if you go to India.
We had lunch at this tiny little hole in the wall pasty shop. Three little ladies worked the counter . We all got a few samosas. Then, as tradition between Mary Ellen and myself, we sometimes get a few desserts and split them. So everyone picked one or two desserts and we all tried them. The ladies were giggling at us and we took pictures of them and the food. And the total was 130 Rs. So we paid 3 dollars for everyone to get stuffed on food and dessert!
That evening the French cooked tomatoes onions garlic and potatoes. It was quite good. Felt good not to have a meal soaked in salt and oil
