Yoohoo! I now have a contact number - bought a pre-paid SIM card for my phone on the way back from work and the whole thing was quite easy! The girl at the store explained everything quite nicely too.
With a sense of elation at being connected again, I made my way back and got down to the task of cooking a meal for myself. Since I'd bought rice and lentils (dal) the day before, I thought I'd content myself with a simple dal-chawal combo (rice and lentils for those not familiar with Indian food). I then got ambitious, and tried my hand at a fancy omelette as well.
At the risk of sounding rather immodest, let me say here that the whole thing turned out quite yummy - me and my stomach are at peace with the world, and typing this post as I lie on my bed is about the only thing that interests me right now.
Might go over to Denmark tomorrow (or Sunday) - haven't decided whether I should catch the ferry or make do with the train; depends on the weather and my level of laziness (lol).
By the way, I think I like Carlsberg better than Heineken (beer, for the ignorant).
Some of the things that I've forgotten to mention earlier:
The weather here is rather end-of-summer - not too cold, but a bit nippy nevertheless.
They don't use Euros over here, so had to get some forex and change to Kroner.
The cars are left-hand drive, and they drive like the Americans do - for those in India or the UK, that means the "wrong" side of the road (lol).
Too sleepy now - off to Denmark tomorrow. Will post once back.
