We arrived in the late afternoon at Mysore, but lost no time in exploring the city. The hotels were all full and expensive, overpriced for what they are. But we luckily found a manager who gave us a (gasp!) 400Rs reduction!

The sunsets in this region, Karnataka, are breathtaking...
.
There were a lot of touts in front of the palace, promising incense, oils and weed. We ignored them as best we could, but one very insistent guy (who seemed drunk) was so offended when we asked him to shut up and go away that he started screaming at us: "INDIA IS MY COUNTRYYYYY! I WALK WHERE I WAAAANT!!!!" Well, he had a point... And for the first time ever, I think Henri was genuinely scared and pushed me to go the other way. The dude was a different level of pagal (crazy).
