I can see who works harder now!

Lets put it down to the sheer stress of being on the road, shall we?

I know its hectic, but you guys are enjoying yourselves. Thats all that matters!!

Cheerio!

p.s.: are you sure about being all wide awake while B drives??

So, here is my 0.01 guys. Well it is actually a 10.00 :D

1. Use flock.com. It will save you lot of time for keeping in touch with everyone through flickr, twitter, facebook, wordpress, youtube… all at the same time. No need to several applications.
2. Use phone-to-email facility of TGDC for blogging
3. Keep the laptop connected to that power port and reliance hooked on. I have it running all day on my desk. works like a charm.
4. Make the back seat “a gadget seat” and the one with navigator turn should hit it.
5. Carry it while you stop roadside for anything. Battery should last that long at least
6. Picasa should ideally pick the photos directly from camera, but if not.
7. Keep some dry snacks ready with you as “substitute food”. It worked for me always. Lot of drinks in the car. You need it to prevent dehydration. Snacks and drinks will allow you longer drives with less stops. You will eventually get to a hotel anyways in the evening. You will have more time to eat and relax if you already blogged during the day.
8. Eat veggies. Eat light. You can blog if you are not busy with bathroom ;o)
9. Change places often. It prevents RSI and gives you rest from any prolonged activity.
10. Bets of all. ENJOY! it will automatically reflect in your blogs.

I hope something from this helps you. Keep going.

You can maybe take agra-mathura-bharatpur. Mathura refinery is top among 14 in India. You can see it right on the highway. There is also a very very large petrol pump which is the largest I have seen so far. Not sure if it is the largest in India. Can be.

If you can de-tour, that is. :o)

also, I was very pleased with the quality of photographs on your blogs. I finally decided to check out your application again and it mentioned that you are photographers. So, one mystery solved. :o)

Thanx for setting our perspectives right…..It IS tiring and you have a few more days to go! ..... Do take care, both of you….... In the meantime , THANX for making it so excitng for us

tragedy of India!

Radhika,
This sounds more like work than a vacation…but it is cool that you are managing to have fun in the middle of all the stress and sleeplessness.

Oh dear, life is tough but I’m going to be following you both and I want to see eveything you photograph blurred, wierd whatever.
Our computer got a bug so I missed out on the first few days but going forward I’ll be tailing you. Hope things get easier and more fun.

Guyz,
I guess fan expectations are high.. because your riding the dreams of 10,000 people who would have loved your seat (or should I say 9,998 to be precise). All I can say is keep them coming! And feed Bharath a six-pack red bull for the next 6 days!

Hey Bharath & Radhika,

I can hear your frustration. When something that you love doing becomes your duty it no longer is enjoyable. And that is probably what is happening to the three of you.

I say take your time and do try to enjoy in small bits and pieces if not completely. Probably when you will look back at these memories after sometime it would become more enjoyable to you then.

And also think about the numerous fans that you guys have created for yourselves… that itself is probably worth the effort. You guys are touching so many hearts everyday through your blogs. I personally like your blogs better than the other contestants and would bet any day on you to win this challenge hands down.

All the best to you guys and keep up the good work.
Rajat

Hey Radhika & Bharat take heart from knowing that all your ‘work’ and tiredness and sleeplessness are well worth it coz all of enjoy reading your blogs and seeing the pics.  So keep going. If there is excitement, there is no tiredness.
Must say Ram’s comment was excellent except Pt 7…..we want more stops and more stories !!!

Don’t burn out guys! but keeping doing what you do and those pictures coming!!
