1. flight to Frankfurt was only a 15 minute delay at the outlet. In place of arriving on time, so we had 2.5 hours until the next flight
2. short tour of the Frankfurt airport - we did not want to go to the new terminal, and the old do not generally experience one of the largest airports in Europe.

3. On departure to Chennai, we heard an interesting offer. When boarding was announced that they are looking for volunteers who will fly to Chennai by Bangalore (or another flight) and in return, receive a bonus of EUR 600. Not noticed or reported to anyone. We discussed this proposal but we're not sure what would be given with luggage in Poland, EUR 1200 and so we have not been "easy" earned. I wonder whether the premium to be collected in cash, or rather in bonds / miles.

1. Soon, Diwali ...
   
2. It is 3:00. We are waiting to start boarding.
3. Boarding without reservation. Of course, at the door of another military or police officer to see if the luggage is a sufficient number of stamps. After checking in we get on the bus and ride to the aircraft.

4. KingFisher Airlines is truly a different world. After the experience at the airport in Chennai, we get a new, very nice Airbus A330. Inside the beautiful music from the speakers, in an elegant red stewardess uniforms, each chair ekranik private - even nicer than in the Lufthansa first impression disappears for a moment when the plane disappears when reversing the voltage, the light goes out for a while and restarts all the screens - I can only see messages bootable Linux. But after a while the crew abandoned the recorded presentation and discuss the safety seat belt and mask "on line"

Several myths about India, which do not have to translate into reality

Perhaps our observations result from the fact that we first visited the Andaman Islands - and it is a bit different India. Besides the time spent on the continent rather better hotels and neighborhoods.

1. myth: it is dirty - the fact: Our rooms were very clean restaurant, hotel alleys. Even considering European standards, if we consider the smaller hotels.

2. Myth: it is a lot of insects - a fact: in the room have not identified any individuals, plus one spider in a hotel in Port Blair, but generally the hotel is likely to be under the care of the government and not private, and has shown some shortcomings. Starting the evening is always a smarowaliśmy preparation against mosquitoes - a bit preventively. An effective measure is a Muga. Mosquitoes may occur in the forest and in the evening - I noticed a bite when it applied the measure, because we left the hotel as it was clear and walked to the dive base Barefoots, who happened to be in a place where mosquitoes fly.
