November 7 : weekend before Diwali!!!!

Saturday morning. I have established a routine to get up very early and walk for an hour. I feel excellent...no sun, but half of Mumbai is doing yoga, exercises, walking etc. Apparently winter is coming, and it felt a bit cooler, but winter is a relative term here. I have now established a regular yoga practice, and will do my own thing from today for the rest of the Diwali week. Diwali is the Hindu Festival of joy and light. There will be lots of partying happening here, as it will be like Christmas!! Just sorted out the finances for the Tea Estate portion of the Indian Odyssey. That comes after the Train Odyssey which happens in two weeks time.

I planned the actions and music to 3 songs today. I'll finish tomorrow the other two. I teach them to the teachers on Monday for the concert!!

Tonight I went to movies. Very close by. Nice theatre. Interesting experience. You stand for the Indian National anthem. There is a 10 minute intermission. The food is excellent, not just junk food, although popcorn is there too. They had really healthy food, and wraps. The movie was very interesting: Burnt with Bradley Cooper. I walked home at 8:15 pm and it was really hot. It only cools down here about 11 pm!!

Today is a stay in day in AC. I had one of the hotel staff take some pics of "hotel yoga" a new brand of yoga, based on improvising hotel furniture to use as bolsters. I found the "backpack bolster" did not work too well!! These are pics from my daily practice.
