I arrived in Kamalapur really early. The train to Hospet was on time, and by 8am I had registered at my hotel too early for an available room. So I walked into the Main Street and popped into a coin and bronze trinket shop. After a bit of browsing the owner, who had by then finished the daily blessing of the shop with incense asked me by birth year, then proceeded to search through a large pile of coins. My gift for the day from him was a 1970 coin, which was a really nice gesture. Shame I didn’t want to buy anything in the shop!
