traveling to paradise

...was quite adventurous, as usual. we took a rickshaw from hampi to hospet (30 min.), then a local train from hospet to hubli. local train means that there is no seat reservation, you just get on and hope you can fit in, somewhere. well, we got on and (miracles happen in india, you just have to believe in it!) even got seats. sitting on a wooden bench for 4 hours was challenging, especially because there were 6 people sharing the bench that was made for 3 persons. well, lets just say, that i had a puking infant next to me, who manage to get most of the puke on the bench, but some of it on me. that's how the journey started and i was not so happy for some parts but then the humor got the better part of me and we just laughed it off. what else to do? we had dinner at the railway station in hubli, got on the right train (after being yelled at my some clerk at the tracks...so random!), managed to sleep a little and - much more important- woke up in time to get off the train at 6 am in the morning. then took 2 rickshaws and a bus and...tatataaaa...here we are. safe and sound!
