But looks can be deceiving.

 

I spend another evening in The Gem - the traveler bar in Pahargaj (the only bar in Paharganj) - and about fifteen of us sit in the back on the second floor, playing cards and racking up a bill. Travel isn't always dusty buses, water parasites, and searching in vain for toothpaste.

 

I'd brought a few cigars for the trip (they didn't make it past Kashmir), one of which I was sharing as we drank Kingfisher beer and Old Monk rum, the latter of which the staff of The Gem water down; everyone, and only those, who drank Old Monk that night was sick days later. I stuck to beer.
