Sat in Mumbai airport surrounded by an aromatic air of spices waiting for our connecting flight to Bangkok. The last day has been a bit of a whirlwind and it hasn't sunk in yet that we have actually left indefinitely. I'm not sure it ever will?? Dave hit the nail on the head when we boarded the plane at Heathrow, normally when you go on holiday you have a time frame and lives to get back to, but we have left everything behind (including my wardrobe!!) I had this weird sense of calm and thankfully of of getting everything ready in time, but also filled with this overwhelming sense of excitement - that we have absolutely no idea what the next few months, years will hold and the adventures we are yet to have.
When we got in our seats of our Kingfisher flight to London to Bangkok we settled in our very red seats for our greatest adventure ahead of us.
The flight was brilliant - I couldn't fault it, the food was Indian but so good - the best plane food I have ever had. the movies weren't great but I watched Friends and they scrambled out the section where Joey and Rachel kiss - was really funny. But they didn't seem to do anything like that for the films - which was weird.
When we landed you could see the slums almost spilling over onto the runway! Bit of a shame we're not getting off here - but that will be for our next adventure...
