Very Varanasi...

 

We boarded the train expecting a 10 hour ride.  We're in sleeper class although no AC.  We only  had 3 bottles of water between us but we'll be asleep through the night and wake up there. No sweat. HA!

26 hours, water rationing and heat stroke later we arrived in Varanasi to find that our driver wasn't there to pick us up. Wasn't a big surprise we were 6 hours late... Its a 20hour not 10 hour trip.

So we took a cab to our hotel - Hotel Siddarth and arranged for him to pick us up in the morning for a trip around the city.

Wow, that's a long time on the train! I got a little bit stir crazy the 6.5 hours it took from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore! And from what I've seen on shows, the Indian trains are... not as nice. Pics of the train please? Did you take any?
