Today I was minding my own business and walking along the road from my room in the guest house to the classroom. It's about a five minute walk along the main street. I got about half way to class when a carload of Indian tourists stopped right along side of me. The driver leaned out of the window and asked me in English: "Where is the Golden Temple?"I replied that the Golden Temple was just over the wall next to the road and I pointed to the Golden Temple. The driver then asked me where he should park his car. I told him to go a little further down the road and then to make a left hand turn into a large parking lot.
I am not sure why the driver thought I would know the answers to his questions. I certainly cannot be confused for a local. But after a week here in Bylakuppe, I do know my way around.
