Day 5 started with wake up chai, which Praveen made. Followed by heavy breakfast of omlete. We said bye to our hosts at 9:05 am. It was so nice of them to host us. When I was chatting with the uncle in the morning I realized of one big coincidence. It almost freaked me out. Uncles used to come to Bangalore and stay just about 100m from our current house. Praveen gave me all the way points to get out of town, which I followed to get out. Little crowded capital. Praveen had suggested to go via hazaribag but after taking in to consideration that I do not drive very fast and that I will not be able to recover time on better but longer road, I chose to via bokaro and dhanbad. Roads were nice except you will hit small towns every now and then. This slowed us down. Aahan had first instance of vomiting. He vomited twice. Initially I though it was the road then I realized that it was the food. Probably the heavy breakfast. Need to be little more careful and take light breakfast. He also wanted to go no. 2 on NH2, so we stopped used the roll. I was driving mostly at the speed of 90. No rush at all, and I figured out that this the speed I enjoy on this type of traffic and road. I was planning to book a hotel via Chd when Tapan mishra extended his hospitality to me and I readily accepted :) Entered Kolkata at 7 pm but got lost multiple times. GPS and Google can not beat Kolkata traffic. Traffic was all going on opposite direction (it seemed from the STOP written on the TAR) but then realized its one way with divider Reached salt lake at 9:30 and stayed put. Had some old discussion with Tapan on work and life and dozed off to sleep. Rest and sight seeing on the books for today but not iny vehicle. I am going to rely on local experts, the taxiwallahs .
