Analaysis

My analysis on Port Blair:

They said that the Tsunami hit the port pretty bad, and that could be the reason for some of the architecture changes:

The roads are uneven, and it goes up and down.
There's loads of sand around, and it keeps getting to your eyes.
Its relatively warm, and most of the women are in traditional sari garb; while the men wears suits to long sleeved shirts to normal shirts and pants.

Shops:
There are many single provision shops which are about the size of 2 atm machines behind each other. They sell a variety of candy, chips, drinks, and gum. Not to mention cigarettes, where the natives buy by sticks. The 'uncle' there also lends them matchboxes.
The only thing differentiating these multitude of provision shops(one can be found after every 3-4 stalls) must be the variety of the provisions they're selling. They're slightly different each shop.

Still on shops, i've noticed quite a couple of shops selling kacang puteh(?) and slightly more stores selling little cakes and pastries, which cost 4 rupees each. These cakes are very sweet, as with the drinks there. Would it be fair to say that they have a sweet tooth?

The expiry date of many things are backdated to 17th Feb 2007. I guess that would make things cheaper eh?
