Beet Harvesters
Just north-east of Bangalore, north of Hosakote, we found these beet harvesters closing up the bags. They had about 50 of these bags all ready to go. Behind the car was a huge stone swimming pool that they washed the beets in.
Pottery Town
Pottery Town-- or what's left of it.
We went to Pottery Town (just north of downtown Bangalore) hoping to find some vibrant pottery sites, full of activity and creativity.
What we saw was something that appeared to be dying. There just wasn't any life in this area. No one was working and no one was really selling anything interesting.
The only interesting thing was this pile of new pots drying in the sun, and the kilns (picture to come).
Maybe it was just the wrong time of year...
Cell towers everywhere
There is nothing like a cell-phone tower to ruin a good view, eh?
These things are EVERYWHERE in Bangalore, and yet phonecalls drop unexpectedly quite often...
Sky over Bangalore
As viewed from the backside of the ISKON (Krishna) temple. Gorgeous clouds as a storm rolled in.
I got to tour the animation studio onsite there where they are making an animated movie and TV show about the "life" of Krishna. I would put "life" in quotes for Jesus too, just in case you were wondering....
