Retracing steps...

In order to move on with our blog, we first should be grateful that we even made it to Bhuj! 

Originally we had prepared our suitcases and set ourselves up to get on a train from New Delhi railway station early on monday the 2nd April, what seemed to be an organized plan turned into more of a travel nightmare! Our train was in fact leaving from Old Delhi railway station and with only 15 minutes to spare, we were left in a state of panic knowing we weren't going to be in Bhuj any time soon. The travel agent promised us a train for wednesday...didn't work out. So we ended up on an expensive flight to Ahmedabad late wednesday evening, with added baggage charges.

When we arrived, the air was dry and very hot. Again., we had to rush to the bus station to catch a bus to Bhuj but the auto wala wasn't fast enough...we ended up in a semi-decent hotel for the night, the driver also tripled the cost of our journey, the cherry on top.

Waking up the next morning, our first sight of the Gujarati city, we took a short moment to gaze at a temple nearby and then we started for a ten hours long bus journey. 

When we arrived it was pitch black, we knew no one, we were unsure of how our night could get any more vague! It was us, and a cow. 

Eventually we came to our new home. It was much better than we had imagined. The room was hot, but you can expect that when you are in a desert environment. Tired from the journey, we slept...
