The week gone by..

Its been a week since I came here, how time flies.

Interesting Aspect 1 - Skating on thin ice
As the title says, walking on the roads is quite a challenging task. The snow has hardened on the road, sidewalk and by continous pressure, it has become a thin sheet of ice. One wrong step, you will end up like a character straight out of Tom & Jerry.

Interesting Aspect 2 - Taxis
You can flag down any car, actual taxis or private cars, negotiate the rate and simply get a lift. So you can travel from anywhere to anywhere in a mercedes benz, toyota or even a porsche if your lucky.

Interesting Aspect 3 - Address
All addresses are mentioned as a combination of 2 streets. As the roads are at right angle intersections, you have to mention both the road names to get anywhere.

Interesting Aspect 4 - Raj Kapoor / Mithunda
People see Indians, once the greetings are over and enquire about Raj Kapoor (Mere Jootha hai Japani) and Mithunda (Jimmy Jimmy). Am still scratching my brains as to how these 2 got popular when others are there.

Interesting Aspect 5 - Namaste
There is this awesome restaurant called Namaste where you can get proper North / South Indian dishes. You name it, they have it. Taste is awesome too. The ambience is so much Indian that hindi item number play in the background, the waitresses are in salwar kameez , they understand hindi too..so on & so forth.
