Flight

We have arrived! Thanks be to Allah for Oman air - air hostess comes along, asks if we want any drinks: "yeah, two please - *pshh* *pshh* - glug glug glug - red wine! Red wine!" Having taken full advantage of the complimentary drinks we fell into a drunken stupor, awakening as we touched down in Oman. Costa coffee was the cultural highlight of our trip there.

Then on to Trivandrum - on arriving we were greeted by the taxi driver waiting for "Mr Sack Down". Charming. We now understand why people "find themselves"/"find harmony with nate-chaah" in India: as the taxi journeys are so frickin terrifying you really appreciate life, as it may be ended quickly by a brightly-decorated bus.

Off for evening bevs and exploration,

With love
