On Saturday I walked further from the hotel than I had been before. Here's a market that was along a street - there were piles and piles of stuff!

A wider view of the street and market. (sorry about the bright light and dark shadows - not sure how to fix this?)

Ugadi is the New Year's celebration for (parts?) of India, although it's apparently not as big a deal as Diwali and other holidays.

Cows resting in the shade. I can't blame them - it was quite warm outside! (high 90's, I later found out)

The outside of the temple had these amazingly intricate carvings. Each level is a different theme or set of stories. (the bottom one is elephants!)
