Hindu Temple

Spent the day sightseeing yesterday and went to the Kali Temple on the other side of the city. We were greeted by a Brahman priest who instructed us to take our shoes off and follow him. He gave us flowers, incense and painted our foreheads with orange dots. The whole process was really strange. To our great fortune we had missed the morning goat sacrifices where each person brings a goat to offer to the god. I (cydney) was not thrilled to be in this temple with no shoes or socks and sanitized my feet with hand sanitizer (I'm wishing we had brought the big bottle) After the temple we went to the contemporary art museum and were amazed at the work they had there. Today we leave for Darjeeling and I cannot wait to get away from the pollution. Supposedly it is twice the level of world emission regulations. We will write again soon.
