March 05, 2004Some things never change
Well, I finally managed to drag myself off the beach and rented a little motorbike for a bit of sightseeing... Anyone that knows me well, knows that me and things with engines don't mix (I was actually thinking about this the other night and came to the horrifying conclusion that I've never had possesion of a vehicle that I didn't crash - unless you count my car driving lessons, and that was always a close call!) Not bad crashes, you understand - mainly inannimate objects, like walls and lamp-posts... Not that it put me off, mind - I still went to the Big Buddah View image, and the waterfalls View image and the charming grandfather View image and grandmother View image stones. Anyway - after the drama of the day, I went and chilled out to watch the sunset View image from a vantage point on the beach. I took my cd player with me and just relaxed for a while listening to the soundtrack to Kal Ho Naa Ho which I bought in Calcutta after watching the film (by the way - what does the film title mean? Anyone know?) it was bliss! On the subject of Bollywood films, the other one I watched in India was called Khakee - and I couldn't figure out what the prisoner guy was arrested for? Any suggestions? Dusty - can you help at all? It's been bugging me since I saw it. I think I got the rest of the plot down, but I couldn't figure out what that bit of paper was that he signed at the hospital... Anyway - thats me done with the rambling for now - just thought I'd share some more photos of the island with you so you can all drool from home... View image, View image, View image, View image. See - it's hell being me - none of you understand how hard it is to look at those views everyday... :oP Comments
Kal Ho Naa Ho, seems to be... in khakee, the prisoner being transported was a terorist. did you get any pics of the bike? and what type was it. regards, franc. Posted by: franc on March 6, 2004 10:58 PMCheers for the info, Franc - got a couple of pics of the bike - just a little tat-a-bout thing. they don't seem to have make/model names here - mine was a "speedy auto" (as I didn't want a kick start) or something like that... it was red :o) Hey Franc beat me to it. I have not seen either of the two movies, though I have seen the songs of Kal Ho Na Ho on the telly. Talking of crashes, my driving lessons came to an end, and the next day i had this crash... ouch...still suffering, my ego is shattered... engines and me dont go together either Posted by: Dusty on March 8, 2004 06:59 AMWow! Pretty - I really wanna go now :o) We can rent bikes together and wobble around with water pistols to squirt at the Scrappy Doos of the world ;oD xxme Posted by: Dawn on March 8, 2004 07:23 AMDusty bird - hope you're ok? I seem to be mending quite quickly for me (or maybe im just tanning over the bruises???) me with brown legs - something i never thought id see in this lifetime! (ok - so there not actually brown, but there not white anymore either!) Posted by: mary on March 10, 2004 11:28 AMdawn - you're on! I wont even make you touch the monkeys :o) Posted by: mary on March 10, 2004 11:29 AM |
