India!!!

We got back to BKK with no problems at all. It was probably the easiest trip back from the south we have had. We just spent our last day there getting packed up and ready to head out. I ended up taking my main pack, but with much less stuff in it. One of our friends is looking after some things while we are gone.
I don't think it has really set in yet that we are in India. So far everything has gone pretty smooth. Coming in to the country immigration grilled me for a little while because I have lost so much weight since I took my passport photo. After talking with them and showing some other pictures they let me through. Waiting for our luggage it was a little funny because my bag was absolute last bag out, but it did come. Next when we came out of the airport a taxi driver came up to us and we arranged a ride with him. About 30 sec after that another driver came up and tried to grab us and make us come with him. It was hilarious. They started yelling and pushing each other then he just walked away.

We got to our hotel fine. We just picked a random hotel out of LP and had the taxi drop us off there. Checking in consisted of walking up to the makeshift desk and waking up the man at the front from his mid afternoon nap. Him walking us ten feet to our two rooms, then he returned right back to sleep. We didn't check in pay or anything lol.

After getting settled in we went for a walk and a bite to eat. I went to the ATM and it wouldn't accept my new card, I hope it works tomorrow?? We walked around town for a bit, then went for dinner. Our first meal was great, so I am excited about that. We hop on a train to Varanasi tomorrow and there we will spend a few days hanging out seeing the Ganges.
