Mumbai to Pune

The night air is cool enough to forget about the humidity. With our bellies full from Abhishek's engagement party, followed by brief chellos to the to-be bride and groom, Rajeev and I started our journey towards Pune, a 5-6 hour journey by tuk tuk (i.e. auto rick shaw) and by bus. After the long tuk tuk ride through the streets of Mumbai we finally arrived at a bus stop. Actually it wasn't a bus stop, but rather a bus that was stopped in the middle of a concrete island in the middle of the road, or so it seemed. I can see that Rajeev is quite upset about something with the bus driver (he was haggled into paying a higher ticket price than was he was told a mere few seconds prior). So even the locals are scammed. How on earth am I to survive with enough money to enjoy the country and leave in relative good health?

In a Pune chinese/indian restaurant. Really good food. Unfortunately i don't know the name of this place.

In Delhi. I seriously think this is a 20 lane highway.
