Greetings from Varansi oldest city in India over 4,000 years old and is it old. My hotel is very clean and quiet in a loud city. For those who do not know Gaurav my friend and translator grandfather died before the train here so I am alone in this city
Imagine going for a walk with narrow roads no lane markers and thousands of people. Then of course are the rickshaws both auto and bike, the bicycles . the horns and the bands, the wedding parades, the festival preps for some goddess. Did I forget to mention the dead bodies being carried through all this covered with bright sparkled cloth on the way to the Ganges cremation sites - over 400 a day
Sorry I can't post images of the river at sunrise it was magical watching people bathing for purification in water you wouldn't believe no photos of cremations allowed
You will have to wait until I get home to see the sights I have seen. Cybercafes will not let me post images from their computers.
I have 1 more day here then the train back to Ahmedabad and the rest of my luggage and home
Take care and look for images after the 15 of Feb I may take me a day or 2 to recover so be patient.
Take care of each other
