And then it was over...

One final quick blog from me leaving india to say i've had an absolutly amazing and eye opening time, i think claire is going to fill you in on what we did maybe or if not i'll fill in in thailand. very quickly we went

mumbai - watched cricket, had western pizza (comfort food), saw lots more dirt, chatted to not many travellers - get the feeling we are quite rare in doing what we've done as not many people seem to be that side of india orientated.

tarin to calcutta - very long and full of multiple vegi currys for every meal. shared most of it with a nicve family with a very loud baby but it was ok. lots of fun card games and learning of gin rumi for claire.

calcutta - so much nicer than mumbai and feeling of space and not quite as much dirt and rubbish. would almost consider coming back just to see it again. highliughts were seeing mother terresas miossionary plkace where her body is lying and also the queen victoria memorial - very big and colonial. anyway bye for now
