The travel week!

So, the week from November 4th to 9th was a roller coaster with field visits planned in the interiors of Chhattisgarh! The onward journey was an absolute experience with the team starting at 3 am in the morning to have Tea in East, Breakfast in North, Brunch in South and finally Lunch in Eastern India! It was an airport hopping session from one state to another till we finally landed at Jagdalpur and drove next day to Bailadila where we spend our next 4-5 days doing mine visits and enjoying high protein rich food at the guest house! I managed a run, too, one of those days and such a satisfying experience it was!

November 9th shall remain etched in my memory not for merely visiting the "Chitrakut waterfall", known to be the Niagara Falls of India but for the honey bee attack on me leaving me all bruised, almost shrieking in pain, landing at a hospital to receive 3 injections at one go before I managed to catch my 2 subsequent flights to reach Kolkata!

So, Day 74 starts for me from today!
