Thursday 27^th November

Up at 6.30 and after breakfast drove back to Bahir and joined the Grand Trunk Road for Delhi. The road and traffic, although bad, was not as dangerous as I had been led to believe – either that or I am now immune!!

Nearing Calcutta we began to look for Rest Bungalows but no good, they just don’t seem to be around. So into Calcutta. Here traffic and roads were terrible, huge potholes etc.

Eventually got to the Salvation Army to find they had just one room free (although not until 9.00 in the evening). This is a very popular place so we are lucky to be in. Had dinner, met one or two people and after general talk settled down to an early night ready for tomorrow.
