On Thursday, one of the students, Tara, and I walked over to a local salon (about a 30 minute walk). While there, we got pedicures for $6, Tara got her eyebrows threaded for less than a dollar, and then got a free ride home from the salon owners. When we got back, we quickly changed our clothes, and then headed over to Hard Rock for happy hour. Us girls are big fans of their raspberry lemonade, which are available in pitchers during happy hour! After a couple of hours at Hard Rock, we went to a local mall - UB City - which is a very upscale mall, on the opposite side of Bangalore from where we are staying. Several of the others in our group, as well as the professors, were eating dinner at the mall. We met up with them, and moved on to a different bar, called City Bar. Pawan joined us, and so did a few of his childhood friends. It was nice to meet them, seeing as how we have spent so much time with him. One of his friends had to head to work at the end of the night, and works right around the corner from where we are staying, so we got a free ride back home at the end of the night as well. Only paying for one rickshaw ride in a day is pretty unheard of, so that along with our cheap pedicures and happy hour drinks, made for one of the best days in Bangalore yet!
