India/Istanbul Trip Day 4: Chill day hanging with the gang (2/28)

We wake up late due to the long night and grab the tail end of breakfast and chill in the room until its time to join the group for a chill day of hanging around the place. First we go back to mamagoto for lunch (people really dug this place the first time) and then walk around the market trying to get our hands on a hookah as some people wanted to chill on a patio and smoke.
Having a drink before lunch with Dre and Shrish. We are on vacation.
Came back from lunch and the gang is on the balcony hanging out.

After striking out a few times, one of the guys goes and talks to a dude running a little convenience stall that sells drinks/candy/cigarettes and in 15 mins, a hookah and the accessories show up by a guy on a scooter. Impressive. We go back to our room to set it up on the balcony while having some drinks and just hanging with everyone. After a few hours of shooting the shit with everyone and just enjoying the gang for a little bit without an itinerary, we walk back to Kahn for dinner and try to go to town house which is again packed (just shouldnt go with big groups) but they tell us their sister restaurant, Public Affair, has space for us so we walk that way. Turns out they were having a peruvian night with some featured peruvian dishes and bogo pisco drinks - winning! Enjoying the drinks and food and music for a bit, we head back to the hotel and chill in the room before I begin laundry in the bath tub (room service wanted 2$ for a pair of socks, and that was the cheapest garment on the list) so I will have clean clothes for the rest of the trip.
