get the wor (l) d

Should I be happy? I'm in the middle of the extension Greeted on arrival micht, the indication 'flight delayed due to operational reasons' delayed. 4.5 hours. Operational Reasons, beautiful soothing explanation.

And beaten so ne night on the airport Delhier around the ears. At five we went wrong, the connecting flight from Moscow to Berlin has been moved in tandem, instead of 10.30am HERE 16.55Uhr now back to D-country. And so I see the old home now right at the darkest day of the year in the dark. Well, to do nothing.

I sit straight in Moscow Scheremetevo, we were just before the departure of the original flight because, as we have bearings taken that's too late. And if that was worked out with the bags then, who knows. Transit zone six hours, minus 13 degrees are out, too bad I can not get out that.

Found shortly after noon that the good-morning flight to Berlin was still there - Departure time 12.20. We were no longer on board, because the food was already on board and would not be enough, so much for absurd reasons. Übrigns flew the machine is still none the less, because in Berlin too glaring weather. What is going on there?

I want to at least use the Internet, 25euro for 2 hours. The spin here completely. So off with live-blogging.

Know when to sit around and Elke Tyll. First is a mathematician / physicist at the Technical University of Berlin and the Max Planck Institute in Leipzig, a focal point is the quantum computer. Elke is a teacher in Brandenburg, alo much babble and the afternoon so it rumbekommen quite well. But now I'm totally tired, hopefully to sleep on the plane again for a while and then celebrate in the evening to six in Berlin, end of the holiday. It's that's it then. And now is a little less hectic blogged

# In the teeming Moscow airport is the only way of unencrypted wireless networks. With exciting names like cargo or VIP regstaer-sh1 or internationally. Can low degree NEN hire car #

Will get paid after arrival in Delhi a prepaid taxi, 160rp, and the info that we take out one of the black and yellow taxis. Take! If it were that easy sometimes. They wanted all of us do not, do not know how to 'take taxi' a. After calming chaotic re-in-Delhi-phase and then somehow get one assigned to come up fine Akhai and Soso.

Nice, a little bit to be at home in Delhi. Soso and Akhai live just outside in the middle of Delhi, but not in the chaos of the Main Bazaar.

The last day to take things calmly, had lunch and some shopping stress-free absorbed the last impressions of Delhi. Soso had now quit her job, has had his very first day Akhai enjoyed Christmas cheer not only for Soso & Akhai at home, Delhi is also colder winter, nearly 20 degrees, and from time to Geblinke Christmassy. Ne slow match.

In the evening, Hugo then 'Age of Empire' has been installed on the local network, Akhai and Hugo were then understandably busy I've got a DVD-Video Punjabi viewed, by the bye too rarely heard music.

A few beers and a delicious dinner later we went off to the airport. Sure, the money for the taxi is not natural enough. I had 255rp, earnings were about 370rp taximeter. Luckily all know Akhai the cameraman, then paid with his name gutn

And from the airport, India, byebye!

What a farewell party. Unspectacular the place again Pine Cafe, the Beach Shack (as the beach restaurants are called here) where we were the day before already. Creatures of habit. Fred, Daniel, Hugh, Buzz (that's the name of the British), his girlfriend, three Estonier, two elderly people, ohoh. Much eaten, drunk, smoked, talked and laughed.

For the first time the folks from Pine Cafe surpassed that have previously been tired. And raised my bill to the Pine Cafe 1000rp/20eur thought, not that it will work here. But Goa is not just India.

Yesterday, today celebrated a long time, get up early, saw the light of day shortly after 9. And no headaches or anything, everything is perfect. Also, we went all the other great, is probably training thing. In any case, the last half a day spent at the beach, bathed again in the Arabian Sea and farewell. Well, certainly not forever, but in any case for almost a year.

Taxi to the airport with NEM, there does IndiGo, the airline of our choice worse. 'The call center has canceled your booking.' As has occurred in recent cases of fraud with credit cards. And to be sure, wanted to see the credit card now, what a nonsense. Luckily I had booked with my own, what if the cash in the money and then not come out with the ticket, because someone else has paid for ... well, everything for our safety.

After some additional security features - the latest hit here is the no-liquids-on-board control - now I sit in the plane to Delhi. The return journey begins. The track I've been associated with Hugo in NEM months beeen at a bike behind me, now two and half hours back.
Tonight at 9 in Delhi, then to Akhai and Soso and tomorrow still time NEN final day in Delhi chaos.

# Is full, the new luxury airplane, not so ne second-hand solution as EyanAir & Co. If I had not expected. #

The evening was then decided that was canceled in typical Indian style (or rather, Goa-style?) Is the mini 'conference in collage Mapusa. So nothing to explain-mesh on the last day is a pity, but somehow not too bad, I can spend the day at the beach. To get the same again yesterday delicious eaten on the beach, KingPrawns, yummy yummy.

Contrary to the dynamics in Indian intentions I've kept myself in my day and most of the day on the beach and read. Clearly also swam, looked to see what makes it so you stop at the beach (except sports).

Afternoon the sad moment, I've brought my bike to Jojo's, NEN Enfiled mechanic will let a dove of the following 10 months now my bike. The first farewell, this time of my life biker. But also a nice feeling to leave something here, and thus the next time even a little more to be here at home. Until then, however, still some water flowing through the passage, we see Vedas.

Last night after night-market yet with Hugo and NEM British, Bila or so, talked through the night and quite a lot of local beer, snacking.

After calming rather short night completely flat this morning, the morning was thus first beach resort announced. Read swum, not many days like this. And once again learned that alcohol is the enemy of relaxation on the following day.

Shiv from Trivandrum has now arrived here, yesterday had a birthday and was luckily similar flat as we do.

In the afternoon I suddenly saw from the balcony from NEN kitesurfers. I can not believe this, finally! Then the kite was gone, then found from the beach and searched.

Talked a little with the type, a local, he says there ne kitesurf school here, but the boss makes grade holiday. In Arambol (or so north) get updated very often more courses. Costs about 8000rp/160eur for scarce for a week, so not as much as biliger D in agriculture. And the season is January / February and the wind is right. Good to know, I'll do well next year in Rostock and failed courses.

# The taxi driver, Annan said today that he will go early to the church. Not a motorcycle, but the car is now too cold early in the winter. Well, only 30 degrees or so, interesting perspective. #

Last night, still looked with Hugo Firefly and can finish off quite cozy. Today morning again started with a swim in the Arabian Sea, then sought the pro-Enfield, where I want to make my bike.

Some hinundher, he was not as degrees, but a little later came around and everything no problem, 150rp/3eur month. it is placed under the box and beautifully wrapped in the monsoon, so I next autumn my bike like new again get.

Then after Mapusa for shopping and the beach was too warm for activities or further, Bathed read, talk, chill completely comfortable. It somehow also found that it is not until Wednesday to Delhi, but already Tuesday again one day less, and the departure disassociates slowly closer.

Today show goes on the Night Market, a local tourist-shopping event, but probably very nice, we'll see.

Of course, one must also look at the times around here. Drum appointment in the morning with Daniel at the beach for breakfast. Actually, Hugo wanted to, but it was still too flat from the Porte wine the previous evening. Been swimming up and down to the last bike tour, but still see time NEN temple. But the way was the goal, and the same was blocked at the beginning: (

Had my motorcycle parked in front of NEM hotel next door here, was probably not so smart. Two broken tires are just not well, more to it. First fix the Schlauchflickwallah and mature, while its nice breakfast and start the day but so slowly.

Lunch we went really going on, what a romantic reminder of the south repairing breaks on the bike trip direction. First of Malaya for Lakeview (or something similar), then a pause and then continue to the said temple. The Lake View Restaurant eating, super nice area. Right after I had parked my bike and straight times 50 yards away, a street dachshund mixed with NEM the partial tree and piss on my helmet, (Well, welcome to Goa.

Nevertheless, the region enjoyed, so go for a walk around the lake afterwards. Eventually, we were around three quarters, went farther in the water we want to risk not of course. The only way out was held back an overgrown jungle path slightly above long. Brave as I was ahead, but abandoned gelich again, the plants looked too prickly to be poorly maintained. Get out of the brushwood, and everything itches. Really, it itches, itches, itches, damn amazing arms, legs, the whole body itches like crazy. Evening, then I learn from the locals, that there are trees whose pollen is toxic, because of what is nonsense? Incredibly, after this miserable attack of nature was nothing more to do with myself. Everything was just itching to find the temple, we have then postponed again and are still ne nice ne island tour over back.

This has the itch is given to the lucky after a good shower, but things had to be washed and even my backpack is now ne Juckquelle ... What a day.

The beach. Internettag. Not much else done, so must sometimes go without A nice book started, 'River of Gods "by Ian McDonald. Science fiction in India is the future. Did not really read much, but I like the idea of ​​times already.

Hugo afternoon came after he had learned that Goa is not a city, meaning there is no bus station in Goa, he has found the way to good His plans are to go to Trivandrum already history, in January we go to Bangalore. The shop of Danesh Hugo fits better, Bangalore is probably more likely to be pavement. A little moody the whole, but he must know.

Towards evening the cozy beer drinking something out of hesitation, since I have with my Enfield on a bearing place F for the look wanted. Fred knew that because we had arranged to meet in the evening. Was ne Indian appointment, I was not entirely clear. Well, was not too late to get drunk and then I made it strong.

# Cletha with (or so), the Kneipierstochter babble. Nice woman. Learn that Monday is a protest in the capital, because some development plan provides for the felling of trees here. I am still not entirely clear how, where and why, but the locals make NEN protest against it, but I'm here #

As might be expected today ignores the morning and sees only in the early afternoon heat, the light of day. Today, too many still in the restaurant from Fred had enjoyed some c-base atmosphere. For a few weeks is the Goa-mesh, so finally available here online. Although not on the beach but the beach is visible from here, but also what is. On the beach, at least not in mechanical our favorite cafe, next to already.

So first looked at the area, once went to Calangute and myself missed NEN sunburn. Is funny here, with NEM 500RP bill can pay you anywhere, but can write anywhere. So a bill reaches a while

Running back on the beach, of course, was not again so stupid to let me into buying ne massage and determines twenty times confirmed that the ladies well I can safely massage but got no need. Sure!

Afternoon in the apartment and spent lamps for Fred tinkered restaurant. The apartment is great, right behind the dunes, a balcony overlooking the sea (I sleep on the balcony, the sound of the sea in the ear) and even negative kitchen with refrigerator. Allrdings must first learn to shop more, the fridge is always empty.

Nice evening sitting on the beach, cozy here. Not the backpacker / Party in Goa, but a very pleasant home to be here. Hugo comes tomorrow, I hope he like it here too.

The zeite attempt has now folded. In the evening back to Karnataka, did not want to wait longer and I prefer a hotel in Karwal taken.

Had early on pure Goa, have not time NEN morning coffee and waved it out the same by a cop at the border post was. Has looked at my papers, driving licenses, registration of the bike, sales contract and wanted to have it 500RP, because the contract was not completed and that my bike was not so real. (As if that is the role of ne) Well I do not even have to discuss large and ne receipt requested, we were already at 200rp - he can settle too - but I was still stupid. So change topic, something tells me, and then adopted to scrounge the elsewhere.

Fred reached in Goa who lives between Candolim and Calangute. Daniel from Freifunk / Berlin was still there, had built the mesh here. I live in the apartment next to Fred, and a balcony overlooking the sea, beautiful and luxurious. And even the Internet, if the server has power.

In the afternoon at the beach - in the heat get updated very often few alternatives. There, I saved my money can abluchsen Goa-entry again. Anita, ne beautiful Indian woman has missed me ne massage. 300rp. Toenails cut 350rp sounded more like I do more for 50rp clean the feet. Clever Anita came naturally to 650rp, but when I get good customer 100RP discount. Well, the Goa-rip had thus found their prey.
