Trip to Mysore

Friday December 18th.  we left Bangalore and drove to the Mysore zoo. At the zoo, over 5 active tigers, a few giraffes, giant squirrels (giant is part of the name, not a description), and 2 great Indian hornbills were among the things that caught my attention. Two of the seven tigers were white. After we hiked about 3 kilometers through the zoo, we got back in the car and drove to the Bandipur National Park and jungle lodge. The park was about 55 miles away and the drive took 2 hours.  At the lodge we watched a video about the wildlife, ate some Indian foods I was only vaguely familiar with, and fell asleep.
