Monterchi and the Villa

On Sunday it was a bit rainy so we relaxed most of the day and then drove around to some towns near Monterchi. (pictures are not in order i am too lazy to fix them after inserting them- Wes)

Here is Citerna at night after we ate dinner

Bangalore business trip

Wes was in Banglore on a business trip, here is what he did in his free time...



Near Bangalore is the national park Bannerghatta with a nice zoo and safari


Wes was 2 feet from these 2 monkeys


The white tigers at the safari were really nice looking


do you want to cuddle with the lions? :)



Near the town of Mysore is a nice fountain garden called Brindavan Gardens




Bangalore is the capital of Karnataka and has the capital building below




Indian god Ganesh is at every temple

The Palace Hotel in Mysore




Mysore Palace was very nice (huge)




The gate to the palace was also cool




Wes rode an elephant then it showed off for pictures :)
