In between two wed­dings and a hos­pi­tal cri­sis in the fam­ily, I had to bid good­bye to my Kazi­ranga plans.

So here I am, after 13 days in Guwa­hati, and I still can’t fig­ure out where all the time went. It didn’t fly, it whizzed by. A nice sight though are the Sify iways that have mush­roomed all over the place. I finally made my way across to one today and am quite impressed with the speeds.

My flight to Cal­cutta is at 11.40 in the morn­ing tomor­row. I’m hop­ing to take on a few sug­ges­tions left on ear­lier posts as to the sight­see­ing in the city. Let’s see what hap­pens. Most well-laid plans seem to get undone when I travel to Cal.

My morn­ing flight from Cal­cutta to Ban­ga­lore the next day has also been delayed to the after­noon, which means I now have some unex­pected time on my hands. It also means I don’t have to wake up at an unearthly hour of 4 am and rush to the air­port! And since I am not a morn­ing per­son, that suits me fine.

The bad news is that in between tend­ing to my rel­a­tive in hos­pi­tal, I com­pletely for­got to check out the reser­va­tions at Lyt­ton and Grand Park, where I intended stay­ing. Most hotels seem to be booked because of some big con­fer­ence. I will prob­a­bly have to stay at a place called Hotel Cir­cu­lar in Park Cir­cus, which I am hop­ing is okay.
