Burgers and Bites

Burgers and Bites have been the only two things on my mind lately. We went to The Hard Rock Cafe last Sunday with a couple of friends and their kids. I had an actual hamburger! It was fantastic. I think we actually all had burgers. After having almost nothing but chicken and vegetarian gravy dishes, I was very excited to have a burger. I don't think it was the best burger I ever had but for overall satisfaction it definitely rates in the top five. It was actually quite expensive by Indian standards at around 300 rupees for one burger. However, this is only about 6 U.S. dollars so it was an ok deal for me. It was slightly undercooked and really needed a few more fries to come with it but after eating nothing but chicken and rice for 5 days in a row, it was fantastic.
The other B-word that I deal with on a daily basis is bites, as in mosquito bites. These guys love me. It must be the American in me or more likely the Buckeye in me. It is hard for me to go one day with out getting at least one bite. They usually target my feet or elbows for some reason but it is really annoying. There's nothing like a really, really itchy foot at 3 in the morning. I have resorted to spraying myself down at 7pm and closing up the windows at 6. but even with this it is difficult to avoid getting bit. I suppose in the future I will need some bug spray with 6000% deet.
