Stansted airport

The start of our trip!
Turkey time!

The breakfasts in Turkey are rather stunning! And the weather's not bad either :-)
Istanbul

So Pegasus airlines are rubbish & due to their ineptitude we missed our connecting flight, so an unscheduled stopover in Istanbul for us, yay! :-s
Thankfully we met some great people who also missedWeiterlesen
38 hours in Dubai

So due to our unscheduled extra stopover in Istanbul we only had 1 full day in Dubai, so we did everything!
Stopover in Muscat, Oman

Nothing to see here! Just Beckie wearing a silly thing on her head :-p
Goa, India

So our first stop in India wasn't exactly mind blowing, but we made the most of it & went on a rubbish tour of all the highlight so you don't have to!!
Short train journey to Agra

Only 36+ hours on a train, as you do :-/
Taj Mahal

Simply one of the most stunning buildings we have ever seen, doesn't look real!
Peanut butter New Delhi time

Our first stop off in New Delhi! A bustling metropolis of a city, poverty & privilege sit side by side, so much to take in.
Jaipur

Or when we first started loving the zostel!
Bollywood movie day, monkeys on a hill & tuk tuk rides through the pink city*
Amer & Jaigarh fort, Jaipur

Stunning fort set on a hill, with hidden tunnels & elephants roaming the lanes!
New Delhi, no ill belly

So clearly people like to try transporting some rather strange things on the New Delhi metro :-/

Mochi on down to Kochi

Day out in Fort Kochi, tried our hand at some traditional fishing using weighted nets! Also visited a spice shop
Phuket pampering

After a month in India it was time for a little bit of luxury so we checked into a fancy spa hotel for a few days. Jacuzzi, steam room & sandy beaches!
Patong beach madness!

We're too old for this shit. We weren't home after food & a beer.
Grand (prix) reveal!

So we decided we'd pop into Malaysia to watch a little know race 🏎🏎
