Day 4: cooking and eating.

Our fourth day in Mumbai was rather unproductive. We had a nice and long sleep which has done us very well. We were woken by the housekeeper that came to clean, cook and do our laundry. We watched her do some Indian cooking for us, which she did very nicely and was very interesting. Having a housekeeper is great.
We tried to get some train tickets for a short trip into the North. We have stood in several lines for the better part of an hour, but sadly there were already 221 people on the waiting list for reservations that might be dropped. This means that our chances for a regular train ticket are very slim. Tomorrow we will try to get some tourist quota tickets.After a cup of coffee with a piece of pie at the Gaylords (?) we set off to have dinner with Nutan. Nutan translates for Thijs. The journey took about one and a half hours by train. She also showed us how the Indian cuisine is prepared and told us many new things about living in India. We had a very nice dinner with her, her husband and her daughter Nikki. We had a nice and easy going day.
