I slept in again - I don't feel guilty given the all night / early morning trains I have coming up. I packed, checked out, and left my luggage and went to look around. I took a rickshaw and then went for a walk along MG Road (where I got denied a hotel yesterday). My thoughts of yesterday were repeated - Bangalore is a lovely city from a seat, but difficult on foot. There are great bookstores though. I spent at least three hours browsing bookstores and stalls - bought three for my upcoming beach time. There are also a large number of crafts emporiums. They're nice, in fact too nice, something about the sterility of the environment takes a lot of the fun out of shopping - I didn't by anything. I had a late lunch then took advantage of fast, cheap internet. After dark I went back to the hotel and had diner for no other reason than I had nothing else to do. At the train station I managed to find my platform and even more impressively deciphered the announcement when the platform was changed! The train was delightfully cool and very nice - the nicest I've been on in India.
