Jo and Sarb's Year Off

Day 134 (Sat 18 Nov) - Kolkata

All had breakfast again with Charles. He aims to include Darjeeling on his travels and Disco has extracted a promise from him that he will look after the dogs that we befriended.

Today Disco was to leave us and head back to London. She soon had her stuff all sorted and we all bundled into a taxi to the airport.

We waited with Disco to see if the flight was going to be delayed but all was well. Said goodbye to Disco for now as she may come out again whilst we are in South East Asia.

Jo and I got a taxi to Sealdah train station so that we could book our tickets to Bhubaneswar in Orissa further down South on the east coast. Managed to book tickets that will leave Kolkata tommorrow at 11:45am.

We got a rickshaw back to the hotel and suffered the worst traffic we have yet seen in Kolkata. Absolutely gridlocked with people, cows, rickshaws etc all trying to jostle and elbow in for an extra few inches of tarmac.

Got back to Fairlawn where we spent most of the afternoon uploading photos.

Popped over the road to a small restaurant where we had some tasty noodles. Headed back to the room as Jurassic Park 3 was on. We both fell asleep whilst watching it!

Jo is still not feeling too great. We've decided if she's still not well by the time we reach Orissa that we will have to go to a doctors.
