Whilst in Rishikesh ...

This morning we dug deep in our bags for the baggy pants and loose fitting tops. Today is yoga day.

We headed to the yoga school and met the instructor. No one else turned up so we had a 'private' lesson. The views from the yoga studio were amazing as it overlooked the river. We took our positions on the yoga mats and were then put through our paces.

An hour later it was all over. We had stretched ourselves thoroughly, chanted a few Om's and realised we are totally inflexible! More practice required.

Breakfast next. This was far more enjoyable.

Afterwards we went for a leisurely walk along the river. There were beaches, Ashrams and lots of gift shops. We came to the 2nd suspension bridge and continued to look for the Beatles ashram. This was where the Beatles stayed in the 60's but is now not used and has been swallowed up by the forest.

On our journey back we crossed the river on the 2nd bridge. We watched as a man was hoisted on top of the bridge. Scary! It was quite a long walk and we were tired when we got back.

We rested a while and then went to eat. It is colder here at night.

Brrrrr.
