Passage to Bangalore

It took me four days to get here, but finally I reached Bangalore on Sunday morning when my plane landed at 5:30am.  It is so crowded and busy compared to everything I'm used to in the U.S!
This is the view from the window in my hotel, looking right down onto Hosur road, one of the main streets of the city:

From about 5 in the morning until past midnight, there is a continuous honking by cars, buses, auto-rickshaws, and motorcycles.  People basically honk for everything: to signal other drivers to move over, for stopped buses and rickshaws, slow drivers, people trying to j-walk, etc.  It literally never stops!

This is the Indian auto-rickshaw, how lots of people get around cheaply in the congested streets.

The only things I've done so far is that I went to Forum Mall (where I got this internet cord!), one of the largest malls in the city, and I also went down to Christ University where I'll be studying come June, to try and sort out my visa registration papers.
