Bollywood!


Well. It was only a matter of time until we were 'discovered'. Yes, we are in Mumbai, home of Bollywood, and our hotel manager asks us if we're interested in being in a Bollywood film.

Hell yes!

So tomorrow, at 8am, our driver Ajmed will pick us up and take us to a Bollywood studio where we will hopefully be placed front and centre in a cool Bollywood flick. What to wear???? We are on our last three days in India and getting involved in an Indian film will be just what the doctor ordered.

Last night was hellish on a 14 hour bus ride (which was less than 600km!) on the most crap roads i've ever experienced. Sleep was impossible and comfort was forgotten after the first 20 minutes or so. And during the early hours of this morning, an altercation between our busdriver and some people out on the road ended in our bus getting hit by a rock! Lucky he made like a shepherd and got the flock out of there. Suffice it to say, it was shit. And I'm glad we've been doing trains around the rest of India.

We arrived into Mumbai this morning and the city looks almost like Brussels or Paris - very European buildings. It's quite clean and less crowded than expected also....

Anyway, hope you guys are all well and happy. On Wednesday we leave v early for Thailand and will be there by mid arvo. Can't wait!
