So i woke up today feeling worse than ever from jetlag. I decided to get some room service to help me wake up. Also, I was lazy.

"banana leaf curry house" - where i had dinner
halfway through my meal, some ladies came out and started singing whitney houston's "i wanna dance with somebody" with acoustic guitar and drum accompaniment. the blur in the picture is from her frantic dance moves. please note the guy sitting in front of her.
and they were joined later by a main wearing a cops hat - he sang into his baton. it was too good to pass up and a picture would not have done it justice so here's my first video. sorry for the sidewayness of it.
