[ODDITIES- Bangalore]
Bangalore is famous for its large software development companies, its city center is western in its feel; jeans and tight tops replace saris, trendy cafes are filled with young couples that dare to express affection in public. But its still India.
And I love India for its cows. Today I was walking along a busy road when I stopped in amazement as this cow crossed the road, a multi lane road. Actually all lanes in India are multilane, its just a matter of how many vehicles can squeeze together at once, simultaneously blaring their horns of course!
This cow had road craft! It literally would wait for some cars to pass, then creep forward allowing cars to pass behind it. No slower than I could have crossed the road our hero skillfully negotiated and inched its way across. Tell me something is wrong when a cow has sensible road craft!? Something for Larry Garson and his 'Far Side'!
India is filled with such oddities; allow me to bring you more over the coming weeks. :-)
