Still in Rishikesh; proclaimed the International Yoga Capital of the World - I have been a bit lost in this town and haven't been able to land in a yoga class.
Besides the language barrier it is very overwhelming. I have been spending so much focus on where I was walking that it has been difficult to actually see what I have been searching for. Watching out for the cars, jeeps, motorcycles, mopeds, carts, cows, horses (and what comes with the cows and horses), people, ducking venders and beggars, monkeys, dogs and I am sure I will see something else that I did not list on my way back to my room.
I found a yoga class today and I took a yoga class today. It went very well. I am signed up for a 3 day course - (2) 2 hour classes a day. :-)
I have been fighting a bug but am feeling much better.
I had a good nights sleep and a nice hot shower.
A hot shower is not easy to come by. Even if it is said that you have a hot shower it may mean a hot water spout in your bathroom; which means 'the bucket system'.
You may have actually have a hot shower spigot but does the hot water heater work? (be sure to check)
If you have a hot water spigot and you confirm that the hot water heater works (good job) but will you have power when you take this 'hot shower'?
At my previous guest house I had to go outside and ring the bell and ask to have the power turned on for the hot water heater. Because of the timing, I have to wonder if my ringing the bell shorted out the power.
I am very thankful for my hot shower and yoga class today.
It was a good day.

Bicycles. How could I forget the bicycles? One came within 3 inches of me on my walk home. And fires; it's a good idea to keep an eye out for roadside fires. And the SWEEPING! There is a lot of sweeping going on and I try not to be in the main burst of the sweepings.
