The second day of Kolkata was just as eye opening as the first. The honking has been absolutely nuts but we are slowly getting used to the sound. Or maybe we are slowly going deaf. Either way, it's becoming more manageable.
The fascinating thing is that, despite all of the madness, the beauty of India totally makes up for the rest of it. There is so much going on in every corner of the city. You are forever mesmerized by the colours and people... and so much more. I'm loving India.

Started off the morning late again. Jet lag and general miscommunication can be thanked for that. but once we were out of the hotel, we were straight into the Uber and headed off to Tiretta Market.
Lost half of the team because we have to travel everywhere in two taxis and trying to get the taxis to drop us off in the same place is VERY challenging. We communicate via walkie talkie most of the time but this time, they were really lost out there.
We met a lovely Chinese lady who spoke fluent English and Hindi and decided to chill with her until the rest of the team showed up.
She was fascinating. He background and life in India was something that I'd never heard of before. It was amazing to see someone with such distinct asian features speaking fluent hindi.
After finally meeting up with the team again, we went to see a chinese restaurant in the city which was all halal. We had lunch there and did some shooting. then we were off again.
We went to see the famous flower market of Kolkata. A sea of noise, colour and of course... traffic. Again, we lost half of the team because the walkies ran out of battery. So we spent a good half an hour hunting down the team. We got all the shots we needed with Bella done as quick as possible.
We weren't able to stay very long there as we had to head off back to the hotel to pack and make it to the train station in time for our train to Varanasi.
It was a mad rush to get to the train station but thankfully the train was delayed by an hour so we made it in time.
The train! WOW! hahaha... not what I was expecting at all. But a true Indian experience to say the least. More to discover tomorrow.
