I lounged around the room for a couple hours starting to get caught up on email. In the afternoon I went out and arranged a tour for early tomorrow morning (ugh!) then found an internet cafe to send the email I'd written. There's something wrong with my journal so the last few days worth of entries aren't coming out right, but the connection was so slow I couldn't figure it out. The restaurant at my hotel had been highly recommended so at seven I decided I'd go eat then go for a walk and see the palace when it got really dark. The restaurant didn't open until 7:45 so I sat around then had an incredible thali - quite possibly the best meal I've ever had for under one dollar! Around eight thirty I set out for the palace. When I got there it didn't seem like 50,000+ lights, it seemed more like six. And a few minutes after I got there even those went out and it was totally black. It turns out they only turn on the lights from seven to eight! So since there is no way I'm going to stay here another week it's very unlikely I'll get to see the palace lit up. Well at least I got the tour arranged...
