Big Things!

So from now on this blog will be a bit more international, because my dearest hostmom, michelle, wanted to be able to read this, too!
No problem with me!
So this weekend there were some big things to see around my travelling destinations...

that are just his balls!

But even when being very serious there were quite a few big things to see on this weekend.
The first stop we made on our way from Chennai to Tiruvannamalai was Gingee a place were there is a beautiful fort and nothing else so we just stayed for the afternoon but the view was amazing, and my nice lttle camera did an amazing job capturing that


you can do the counting of the steps









promise no photoshop, just a beautiful country, that is all it takes...
and look who is up there...


That same evening we travelled to Tiruvannamalai our final destination for that day.
There we were actully able to go up a hill for 3 hours and then down another 2 and no, it was not faster because i fell and then just rolled down, we just had a guide that showed us some caves and spiritual places...



Big stinky feet were up there, too


As well as some pretty red faces


and on the top their was no cross like in germany, nope this is a hill dedicated to god shiva and he likes to destroy things



that night we went by bus to mysore, where we arrived at 5 in the morning
and then did some sightseeing there on saturday and sunday.
that of course also included some walking, so another 1101 steps, i had some butt workout. on top of that hill there was a 5 star hotel under construction that we could even go into, we just had to pay some money to the two guards.
but then again it was just realy worth it...








and then one last big thing that we saw was the palace at night with 20.000 light bulbs, it felt a little like christmas in america, but just a little because this lights are just on for 30 min and once the time is up the guards are making you leave quickly and not in the ncest way...
but it was still breath taking






tomorrow is already thursday again, so i will be leaving again but just till saturday because sometimes even the luckiest people have to study some :)
