Arrival in deepest Bombay

This place stinks!

sunny 38 °C

Well we're here, flight was fine weather's nice and hot and its pretty much as we imagined it to be. Coming into land we flew over what can only be described as Blaen Y Maes X1000 hundereds of shanty houses packed together like sardines how people find there way home from the pub after a few Cobra's is anyones guess. We then caught a pre-paid taxi to our hotel (about 2 quid 50 for a 40 minute white knuckle ride) Either India is full of lots of very good drivers or they are just very very lucky, we certainly wont be hiring a car anywhere on the sub continent thats for sure its bazzerk!

Not done anything as yet just been checking out our view from our hotel room, its of an off white dust wall, and very nice it is to.

Off now to soak up some culture and have some sort of chicken dish at the local fast food joint i think its called TajDonalds!

Will write more soon, Ta Ta for now.

Ant and Tan.

Hot, sticky, and spicy, just as you thought, but rather more smelly!!. Are you sure that your burger was cow!!!

Try the curry, at least it will go straight through.
