Last day in Mumbai

Time to move onto our next stop - ready for it too. 20 million people live in Mumbai, and just half a million in Udaipur... hopefully will be a bit quieter!

Saw our first Bollywood movie last night, all 3 hours of it. Great fun though, just about followed the plot. Was sat in the lobby afterwards, and had a conversation with two Indian guys:
Them: Hello
Me: Hi
Them: (laugh)
Me: Are you here to see "Welcome"
Them: Yes
Me: I've just seen it, it's very good!
Them: (more laughs)
Them: Speak Hindi?
Me: Hindi? No
Them: (laughed me out of the cinema)

Treated myself to a haircut today (best 50p I've spent) while Kate read Hello and OK.
Off for a wander before our 20 hour train journey. Woo hoo!

BIG MISTAKE

After wasting 4 days resting in Mumbai news of a 20 hour train journey suggest the travellers are back on the right track, with the journey covering 626 miles.

However, a little research shows they have travelled in the wrong direction and the net distance travelled has decreased to 4137.96 miles.

Average speed is now 24.63 mph.
At this rate they will be home on 18th February.

Looking forward to seeing you then
