Arrival - January 19th

January 19th - 2011

It took an hour and a half to reach Heathrow airport. Our flight was with Kingfisher airways which I had never heard of before but It was a nice surprise as it was a pretty posh plane. (although the films were rubbish)

we were sat in the middle section of the plane which i thought was a bit of a pain and i was sat next to the most irritating woman imaginable. I don't think she fully understood the concept of a knife and fork and preferred to just use her face instead.
We arrived at Bombay airport around 12pm. I will be honest.. it was pretty nasty, and the fact we had a lot of jet lag didn't help at all. as we flew in to Bombay you could see all the shanty towns and the sun was out but you couldn't see it because off all the smoggy haze in the sky. so thankfully we weren't there for long.

apologies for the blurry photographs... we were pretty tired.

Hellooo Everyone!! Firstly I would like to apologize for not posting for 2 weeks. Basically We haven't had a proper chance to get on the internet and do a blog post. So now is the time to make up for it :)

Introduction


Above is a photo of Me (right) Tom (left) and Lewis (middle), the three of us will be travelling together! So you will be seeing a lot more of them as well as me.


Hello everyone, firstly, thank you for following my travel blog, it's much appreciated. I will try my best to update this on a regular basis and I hope you like it.

Today is sunday the 16th which means that we fly out in 2 days time! very exciting stuff.

Still need a few more last minute basics like mozzie spray etc. Besides that, I'm pretty much packed and ready to rock n roll (this was no way influenced by the fact i'm currently watching school of rock..) If any of you have been to any of the places that we are visiting, I would love to know any tips, advice, places to stay or things not to miss out on, let me know in the comments :)

Here is my bag all packed and ready - My tortoise shell for the next 3 months.
Wish us luck!
