Seeking A quiet moment to gather our thoughts!
"The Park Hotel" was great accomodation for our first stay in India. The weather was very humid but we decided to brave the streets and go for an early morning walk in kolkata. Diary Entry': " We have walked around a few blocks and we have smelt more smells that you can imagine, and seen amazing sights. Stalls of laundrypeople, loads of cooking on the street. Nikki walks in front of me and the men look her up and down- the brave ones smile. dogs everywhere!" . One Mother with her baby in her arms holds her hand out to me and says "Chocolate Baby". It was a mind blowing introduction to India, and certainly a huge assault on the senses. We finally found a small park where we sat down to gather our thoughts , with sweat pouring of us we tried to absorb the noise and feelings of being overwhelmed!
