Day 4
![](images/gallery09/5757/64754/400x400.jpeg)We have made it to Darjeeling. The past 3 days have been rough. . . constantly breaking down, getting towed, "repaired"...breaking down again.![](images/gallery09/5757/64752/400x400.jpeg)
shillong to guwahati
First day of the run started out at noon-- lots of adrenaline, excitement, aprehension. Â I think there are around 74 (?) rickshaws in the run; we took off from Shillong and shortly after it began to POUR rain. Â The route from Shillong to Guwahati is windy with hills, mostly downhill. Â The highway is about the width of 1.5 US lanes. Â

We have arrived and are soon departing
Hello, quick update... don't have much time so we will probably have to wait until we get back to upload photos and video.
 Day 1 in Delhi= an incredible stench, a bomb, an earthquake.
Day 2 flew Delhi to Guwahati, 5 hr taxi to Shillong. A mold covered hotel room awaited us.Â
day 3 shillong-Â met our 3 wheeled pet rickshaw and pimped it proper
learned to drive the rickshaw-Â have to remember that traffic runs the opposite direction than in the USA/FranceÂ
day 4 shillong-Â picked up more supplies from mechanics around town, a new very loud horn, etc.
tomorrow we depart around noon- later than we would have liked, but there is an "opening ceremony" as all 70 rickshaws begin their trek out of Shillong.... sure to be exciting and yes-- i will be honest-- scary also
alright we'll keep the interesting stories for when I have a better internet connection.Â
ta-ta until then!Â
Â
Â
Leaving tomorrow
Vive la France. Because nothing will better prepare us for India than a few days in Paris. ![Cool](editor2/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif "Cool")
