We have fried eggs on toast for breakfast! With proper toast! And a mushroom omelette. Lovely.
We go to the Aurobindo paper factory. They aren't actually making any paper when we visit, but we browse through the incredibly tactile selection of products in the shop and buy some letter paper to write home with. When you go in a shop most people generally say 'bonjour' instead of 'hello'.
Kate buys a salwaar kameez in the Auroville boutique, so today we've basically funded the Auroville weirdos' hippy dippy lifestyles some more...
We take a walk along the beach, and stop at a cafe where I inadvertently order a blue milky, minty drink. I think Rule no. 1 is surely 'never drink anything blue'. In the evening we have some beer and a wood-fired pizza.
