Hampi...the
busride, the monkeys and the frog: 04.january.2005

Leaving Goa to Hampi in a crazy busride. Just for you
to know, Hampi own one of the most sacred temple over
the centuries. The temple is dedicated to Shiva, known
as Virupaksha...but after the busride first of all Hampi
was for us the realize from suffering !!!
|
Goa was cool, Goa was relax, Goa was easy,
Goa was just to relaxing....its great but after a while
you can become a Vegetable there, means just to hippy
for us. The people after a while where to much passive
and so we decided to move.
10 hours bus took us what Goa gave us: NRJ.
This 10 hour of the cheap bus, where a nightmare. Something
different from the Bolivian bus I took with Lorenzo.
First of all, I had to jump on the roof of the bus to
lock our two backpack in case somebody want just to
take it away in one of the stops. But as we will see
it was a good choise also because the bags will have
just jump out of the roof from their own thanx to the
most broken street I ever saw. I mean it can be a street,
but in 10 years maybie. Now it was just a path with
big holes, dust and the big trucks that where passing
us all the time. In this "killing-trucks"
some of the most craziest Formel 1 driver with just
an accelerator and no breaks. Inside our rolling-thing
we get the baddest comfort ever. The seat were as hard
as a beton block, adding to that they were for haft
europeens.I develope.:
One Europeen = to 2 indians in the size. So
we ask for 2 seats, witch is for us 4 indians size.
But they give us 2 indians seat, witch are of course
one european size. To be clear, at the end Ludovic and
me shared a single seat. I mean try to put two gorillas
in a Austin Mini and you get what we get. No room to
seat. But however, we manage it. Ludovic was close to
the window and I close to the "coridor" filled
with detritus and dust. As the bus leaved we enjoyed
a 10 hours long ride. Ludo s head hit maybie 100 of
times the metal cadre as he tried to sleep.
