Last weekend I took a trip down to the main bus station in Bangalore. I wanted some information about buses for some weekend trips I'm thinking of taking. Big mistake: huge. It was one of the most overwhelming experiences I've had in India! So many people, buses, languages, the noise and all the endless hustle and bustle. I asked for some information at the information desk but left little better informed.

One thing did stick out in my mind though. Something about the platform numbering looked a bit odd. They were numbered as follows: one, two, three, four, five, five, five, five A and six.

This place is crazy - but somehow it works.
