This is it folks, it is time to go...
to India
I'm starting off in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia
I'm in bukit bintang and I'm just waiting for the MRT the mass Rapid
Transit train to arrived to take me to four stations along we're I'm goin to get on
the KLI Express to go to Kuala Lumpur International Airport from there I'm
going to fly into Mumbai so I guess this is officially day one of
my trip to India even though I'm gonna arrive just today so this is sort of day
zero will call tomorrow India day one. But I've never been to India that's very
exciting.
I'm now going to get the express train to KLI2 so although it says welcome to
Malaysia it's actually for me it's farewell to Malaysia
Oh look, there's actually a train here. I wonder if I can get to it...
run run run run...
Oh, timing
Got it
Welcome on board the KLIA Express. Next station Kuala Lumpur International Airport.
One step closer to India zipping along in the fast train it's a really easy way to
get to and from the airport to central Kuala Lumpur.
Sit back, relax, enjoy the ride.
I get the feeling from here on it's just gonna get more hectic
the closer I get to India
but it should be great
The next station is Kuala Lumpur International airport.
Good morning ladies, good morning
thank you
And I'm in India at Mumbai Airport now let's go and see about a lift to the hotel
Oooh, it's hot.
So where do we start?
Okay.
Loking for... no...no...no....yes!
I got a lift.
Hey how ya doin'?
Simon?
That's me.
Some morning breakfast at 7:30
You can come now.
Thank you.
Your room number is 201 on the second floor.
Here's your room.
Please come inside.
Ah, bright.
Oooof. Well it was quite a long flight from Kuala Lumpur, four-and-a-half hours and we were
late leaving as well. It meant that I arrived in my Kuala Lumpur timeline
arrived at like about 10 o'clock at night.... no....no.... midnight.... midnight Kuala Lumpur
time because India is a bit odd it's two and a half hours different from GMT and
where they get there half an hour from have no idea I'll probably discover as I get
halfway through India. But, got picked up at the airport
the guy was waiting there with a sign and in the 10 minute drive from the airport to
the guesthouse which is close by the airport I'm just overnighting here quite
nice though nice and clean and quiet because on the road aha we nearly
squashed by a dozen tuk tuks just in that short journey the driving is
chaotic, but, I am here in India. But I'm not staying in Mumbai for long
tomorrow I'm back to the airport so I get up, hopefully I have some sleep, get up have
some breakfast, no idea what breakfast is, well obviously I know what breakfast is
but I don't know what the breakfast is going to be here if you understand and then
I'm back to the airport come flying to Varanasi in the far northern eastern
side of India where I'm going to spend a few days exploring that area so no exciting
footage for today, this is, is this day one? We called this day nought didn't we
day naught so far, no exciting footage of day naught, but a few glimpses out the
window a few videos through the the window as we tried not, I don't know if he was
trying not to squash too many tuk tuks or whetherhe was actually trying to squash the
tuk tuks and they dodged him I'm not really sure
so day naught, tomorrow
officially day one India
