site seeing

This will be a short blog as we spent the day sight seeing various places around Mysore. The high light of my day was the Mysore palace and the lighting of the palace. The pictures can be seen on my Picasa site but we visited the palace in the am and observed its history and beauty, but we went back in the evening when the palace is illuminated with 96000 light bulbs. The light show was incredible and very worth while to see. In the morning visit we were attacked by the street vendors and got roped into buying snake magnets, which you toss in the air and they sound like a rattle snake. After some practice I got very good at it and they helped pass the time on the bus.
