Second entry

Dear diary,
Today I went to Jagdalpur with Tulsi Babu. We checked into a hotel there.On the way in the Mandras Mail,two foreign youngsters got into our compartments. They turned out to be Swedes. One of them was so tall,his head nearly touched the ceiling! When I asked him how tall was he, he replied that he was 2 metres and 7 cm. Which is nearly 7 feet! I couldn't take my eyes away from the young man and yet Tulsi was not surprised. He just said that such extraordinary height was simply the result of their diet and therefore nothing for him to be surprised of. Sometimes, I just cannot believe him!
