The next morning we had to get up at 3:45!!! To get a six hour train to take us to the border. Once we got off the train we had to get a tuk tuk to the actual border crossing and go through all the passport stuff. It wasn't as horrendous as I thought, but on the Cambodian side there were loads of people telling you to go to places and it was hard to know who to trust! But actually they were all genuinely helping! We then had to get a free shuttle bus and then a t...

Even just arriving in the airport you can see how different Thailand is from India! We're not used to everything being so modern!! It was about 6 in the morning when we left the airport and even the taxi journey was a completely different experience. No horns and people stick to the lanes and the roads are smooth- such a luxury!! When we got near to the khao San road we literally had a wonder around and after looking at a couple of places found a nice guest house...

Our overnight train came on time! When we arrived in calcutta, it was a bit of a shock. One because it was so insanely hot and humid, and two because it is so much more developed and modern.

So we get to the train station in pleanty of time, only to find that our train is apparently coming at 8:05 am when its supposed to be at 11:20 pm.

After a while we decided to go and check the board again. Still it say 8:00 amm and when we ask the guy again, he says that ...

So after our 6/7 hour taxi drive we finally arrived in Agra. Its pretty nice but at some point the traffic is even worse than Delhi!! We've seen a good few lorries hurtkling towards us while were stuck in a tiny Auto! The hotel here looks pretty nice from the outside , but the room itself is TINY, we can only just squeeze open the door to the box that is the bathroom!! And its my turn to sleep on the floor. I must admit though, after a few days, its not really so...
