Hello India


Feeling very tired so we will try and keep this short. These are just a few of our pictures taken so far on our amazing journey. We were greeted and to a traditional welcome by our hosts Jill and Rick. The immediate bombardment of culture differences made us gobsmacked! So much so we remained quiet for the majority of our transfer.

Once at the hotel, we had a brief chat and sorted out our rooms. Billy, Harry and Andy got the 'Deluxe Room', and Rob and Sammy got the 'Plaza Room'. After we had our showers so that we felt human again, we chilled out for the rest of the day by swimming in the sea (only 100m away!!) and playing in the pool.

Later we were rejoined by Marie, Rick and Jilly, and went to dinner at a fish bar. Despite the food being different, it was very nice. All of us had a kebab but Sammy had a curry.

Tomorrow we will relax around the pool and sea, and try to recover from the jet lag, as well as look at our timetable for the week.
