Kolkata journal entry 03/27

Transcribing + recording what little I wrote in my Kolkata trip journal... merely for my own accounts, so it may or may not be amusing for you to read.

Written during my cab ride:

So, I missed my bus + end up taking a taxi to meet the half of the crew @ Ebenezer's coffee house. Today is the day that we embark on our trip towards Kolkata, India. Already, I am experiencing another's culture as I hear the cabbie speak with someone on the phone in his African tongue while munching on red grapes. I didn't get his name... He is wearing a beige Clairborne Outerwear jacket + beige hat. Nice guy. Says he'll charge me only 12 bucks for the ride. Hopefully that will be the case when he drops me off as his cab still has no meter whatsoever.
