The Flights:

13 hours after leaving the UK we finally arrived in India. The flights have been pretty good, although serving breakfast at 3:40am local time was a little strange. Especially as it consisted of vegetable curry, chicken sausage, fruit salad and orange juice. Still, having our 5-a-day before 4am must be a record.

Predictably we didn’t get much sleep. There only seemed to be about 4 hours of darkness as we travelled so far east. A combined total 6 meals, 5 films and 1 hour sleep sums up a successful journey! Stepping off the plane, the heat hit like a brick wall. It really was insane considering it was only 9am!

Bit of a gamble...
