About today

Caught an early morning train to sion, met up with friends, and headed out to Harry Potter and the goblet of fire on iMax. Was a dissapointment, about the movie later. Saw the movie, found out that I was almost broke, went to eat Pav Bhaji in the cafe next to the theatre. The food was slightly stale, and the pav was a bit too hard.
Then headed out to Mochas, smoked away to glory. I donno how much percent of Hooka is tobacco, but what the hell.
Then headed over to Bandstand, which was like a stone's throw away. Bandra is now familiar territory, because of the seminar, the visits for the memcard and bandstand. This is good news.
Went with one friend all the way to the edge of the sea at bandstand. Talked with him about this and that, but was mostly silent. The walk over to the edge was difficult because of the slippery rocks, and the sharp coral or barnacles, I donno what. Managed though, and had to jump over a small stretch of sea to do it. Finally we were at the edge, and we obsoerved the horizon.
You cannot blame our ancestors for believing that the world was flat. Somehow, at the horizon, according to my friend (I didn't think so), there seems to be a waterfall effect, where the water seems to flow off the surface of the planet (if it were imagined to be flat).
I imagined slight undulations in the line of the horizon. The setting was perfect for a sunset, but we had to come away, unfortunately.

Planned a trip with him to pep fort after two weeks though, which is a cool thing.
