Last words from Delhi

Well, it looks like these will be my last words from Delhi. Tomorrow early in the morning (6 AM, or 0030 AM dutch time) ill be on the train to Shimla. The entire journey should take about 11 hours, 5 hours to Kalka, where i will change trains, and then 6 more to Shimla itself. Ive been told that the second part of the trip is only about 80 miles in a straight line, but because of the mountainous terain, the train has to make all sorts of detour just to be able to climb the hills.

I made some pretty nice pictures today from the top of the training centre, but as i said, internet isnt exactly very fast here, so ill probably upload them once i get back to holland, and ill be sure to take a lot of pictures during the trainride.

Generally everything is ok, i am getting a bit sick of pizza (consider the fact that my lunch was my sixth pizza since monday), and from what ive heard about shimla, over there it is either chinese noodles or pizza, unless you want to try some tricky indian food. And for the time being im trying to be as carefull as possible with food as i can. This girl i study with got sick even from eating a subway sandwich, and i really dont feel like being sick for a few days, so all things combined im pretty paranoid about what i eat over here.

This is probably my last post for a few days, as i wont be able to get a cellphone-internet-contraption thingy in Shimla untill monday or tuesday, so i wish everyone in holland a pleasant weekend, and see you next week!

Hé Victor,
Nu gaat het dan gebeuren, de bergen in! Ik wens je een heel goede en fijne reis naar Shimla.
Enne... een beetje paranoia op voedselgebied is niet verkeerd hoor, zorg maar dat je gezond blijft!
Groetjes, pappa.

Ha Victor!!
Zo, ben weer helemaal up to date! Heb er niet eerder aan gedacht om even te kijken hoe het in India is.
Drie uur reizen voor McDonalds is mij wat veel van het goede. Dan zou ik toch op z'n minst twee McMenu's naar binnen werken. Ennuh, 1 foto kan er toch wel van af?
Grtz, Jesse

Ps.
Een deel van de reiservaring van een reis naar India is op z'n minst zeven kilo lichter terugkomen dan dat je heenging. Dus als je niet snel wat anders eet dan pizza, kom je straks nog zeven kilo zwaarder terug! En dan ben je natuurlijk niet echt in India geweest!
