Bangalore birthday fun

It was Mama's birthday last week so we went to Bangalore on the train. It was such an adventure travelling on the train, I loved wondering up and down exploring - I even ventured into the loos (twice!) - that is quite a feat I can tell you! Unfortunately, 10  minutes into the journey and my hat had blown off (the carriages are open), so some lucky person is walking round the Indian paddy fields wearing my Italian baseball cap! I was a complete novelty everywhere I went so lots of cheek squeezing and head stroking. The hotel staff knew my name within minutes and I was treated like a mini maharaj whereever we went - something I could get used to! We had a wonderful family time, swimming, exploring and Mama pampering. I love you xxxxx
