Today's route: Let go of our train tickets in favor of a sleeper bus leaving later as we wanted to make best use of our time at the conference and in Mumbai. There was things like Biotique Aloe Vera Sunscreen & Body Lotion to be stocked up on (we’re both addicted to it), a side stand for Kalyan to replace the broken one and more tubes to replace the punctured ones (thank you Faisal and dad) to be picked up, gifts like books collected, our Gandhi statues from the Journalists College or the shawls from Girish ji to be left behind (accompanied by a big sigh of sorrow) and our video and photo footage to be backed and as many people from the Caring Friends as possible to be met. We came all the way back from Aurangabad, so what’s a few hours more anyhow? Everyone we spoke to at TISS was very happy to support us when crossing ‘their’ territory and that will make our life on the road much, much easier.
Weather: perfect
Cycled: none
Didn't cycle: 375 km back to Aurangabad and our parked cycles on a sleeper bus. Much better than the sitting compartment of the train on the way here!!!
Ate & drank:
7:30 am: cookies, bananas (W) at Sarvi’s place, H2O
9:30 am: idlies with chutney and H2O
inbetween: chai, H2O, cookies, chai, cookies, H2O (cookie monsters????)
7:30-9:30 pm: dhal tadka and rice (W), roti, chanha masala and egg burghi (K)
on the bus: cookies, didn’t dare to drink too much water as the bus drivers don’t really appreciate if you make them stop because you have to pee...
Highlight of the day: The product manager of Google Apps India getting enthused about our mission and promising us to support whichever way he can, if necessary even by donating his very personal Android mobile with all Google apps pre-installed.
Health Check: all well
Stayed at: Sleeper berth in the AC Volvo bus, rather ok and both managed to sleep. Paid some 1.300 rs for both of us as we booked last minute.
