Back to the Raj Era in Nainital

Thursday, 28 Feb 2013 | Views [525]

We were up early again to catch the 7.30am bus to Nainital just 65kms away.  On being dropped at the bus stand we were instantly bundled onto a Nainital bus that didn’t conform to any times we’d been given!  We had great seats at ... Read more >

Not Striking it Lucky in Corbett National Park

Tuesday, 26 Feb 2013 | Views [343]

Luckily Corbett Motel had a room so we dumped our bags on the floor and crawled into bed for a couple of hour’s kip – well it was only 5.30am.  The room is very basic with concrete flooring but is clean enough and the bathroom is pretty ... Read more >

The Sun Finally Shines on the Golden Temple and a Brief Detour to Delhi

Sunday, 24 Feb 2013 | Views [412]

We were pleased to see that this night bus wasn’t as grim as some of the others and for once actually got a bit of sleep.  Neelam Tours sell the tickets for Rs550 but we’d paid Rs100 commission as the bloke in Bikaner had sorted it all ... Read more >

Holy Rats in Bikaner

Friday, 22 Feb 2013 | Views [317]

We were up at 5am to catch the early morning but to Bikaner.  The hotel staff dropped us of and the bus was suspiciously empty when we set off and it left on time – hmm!  I wondered what the real departure time was when we simply moved ... Read more >

Forts and Camels in Jaisalmer

Thursday, 21 Feb 2013 | Views [275]

The bus leaving Udaipur on time is the only good thing I can say about the over-night journey to Jaisalmer.  It seems that with every sleeper bus we take the standard and the cleanliness noticeable diminishes.  We’d been sold a ticket ... Read more >

A Walk Down Memory Lane in Udaipur

Tuesday, 19 Feb 2013 | Views [376]

Udaipur is actually quite a large city but all the places of interest and therefore hotels, shops, eateries etc are concentrated in a small area.  The most popular being the Lal Ghat area where we started our search for somewhere to stay.  ... Read more >

A Short Jaunt to Junagadh

Saturday, 16 Feb 2013 | Views [331]

You know when I’ve talked about times where something niggling or annoying happens and sets the pattern for the rest of the day or several days?  Well it appears the opposite can also be true; Steve was right last night and it seems our fortunes ... Read more >

Looking for Lions and Getting Lucky with a Leopard in Sasan Gir National Park

Friday, 15 Feb 2013 | Views [616]

We decided to jump off the train at Junagadh instead of continuing down to the coast.  Gujarat wasn’t living up to expectations so we thought we’d give the beach a miss but try to find the lions before heading on up to Rajasthan. ... Read more >


Birthday Blues in Vadodara

Thursday, 14 Feb 2013 | Views [429]

Steve’s flu hadn’t abated overnight so we rested until the hotel until it was time to check-out and head to the train station.  A taxi was lurking by the central reservation so we diced with death to cross the road only to find he wanted ... Read more >

Mumbai Madness!

Tuesday, 12 Feb 2013 | Views [441]

India – Incredible India! Or at least that’s what the tourist board like to tell us. There’s no disputing they’re correct but their adverts don’t show how incredible India is in negative ways along with positive ones. Yes, ... Read more >


India – Trekking, Toy Trains and Tea

Saturday, 14 Apr 2012 | Views [853]

For those of you who have a good knowledge of this vast and varied country the title may have helped you to pinpoint our latest trip; Darjeeling in North East India.   Although we plan to spend the second part of our year out exploring ... Read more >
