that's just sick!

so i think i've hit my low point. I managed to get sick from the lunch on the train from Varanasi to Amritsar. It was already a tough trip, being a good 23 hrs, and having food poising didn't help. All the other meals on the train have been excellent, but i guess my luck ran out. to top it off, i also got sick, as I've been fighting the onset of a cold since Kajuraho. i was not a happy camper on the train. I basically lived in the toilet. i'm pretty good at the indian way now though!

Amritsar is primarily Shiek religion state (Punjab state). It's an interesting religion which was born out of a distaste for the caste system and privelages of the higher caste.

After arriving in here, I saw the spectacular Golden Temple, but was feeling worn out so returned to the hotel at 3pm. I konked out and woke up at 11pm! only one thing to do at that hour, go to sleep! so i went to bed for real and slept until morning.

I could have seen more of Amritsar, but me energy was pretty low. It's been three days now, though, and I am finally starting to feel better. yeah.
