spent a night in a dorm with the whole of my tour group...13 of us in total, guys and girls all bunked down together. it was freezing cold as we were up in the mountains, but there was no bed hopping (that i know of anyway!). a few of us were nearly murdered in our beds tho coz apparently there was some snoring happening (yes i was accused of snoring, but i blame the beer! hehe).
Hope you guys have a great christmas and new year, i'm in Ooty (short for something but i can't remember the whole name right now) for christmas eve and i'm not sure where i'll be for new years, somewhere in the north i think.
its not too bad here so long as you take precautions hygiene wise, although service in restaraunts can be a bit slow. i think we had to wait nearly an hour to get breakfast the other morning in Mysore, we ordered and then it took forever to come out. that was not fun especially when we'd just gotten off the overnight train and were starving.
well i'm getting closer to the halfway mark on my trip, soon it'll be all over and i'll wonder where the time went!
stay safe everyone
