Day 9- Shopping |

Day 9- SUNDAY- Shopping.
The first half of this day was spent in a really interesting part of Bangalore, where there were rows and rows of Puja stalls, kitchen items, and childrens clothes shops. With the help of Anjali and Imo we found the rest of our artifacts and were happy to be able to store most of it in the minibus before setting off for the second part of the day!
After lunch in a Kerelan restaurant (Banana leaf Thali!) we then were given a map of the main shopping district and we had the day to ourselves exploring and shopping. We went to amazing silk emporiums, cloth shops, clothes shops, and jewelry. One vehicle took most of us back at about 6.00pm, when we were dropping! But some of the group carried on and made the most of the late night opening!
