Nov 23rd: Agra to Khajuraho

So we cancelled a bunch of trains and re-booked 3, the first one we decided to treat ourselves to an a/c sleeper ( 3 times the price of regular sleeper). We are waiting at the train station at B1 our spot to board was B2 and the light next to B1 was out. So the train pulls in and no B2, I asked a policeman and he said in was at the other end of the train - we started moving fast and the train started pulling out, so we jumped on and got stuck in general class for the next 2 and 1/2 hours. The people were very welcoming though and we were ok with the mishap......you gotta love India. The day before we had arranged a pick-up and a hotel in Khajuraho. This fancy jeep picks us up at the new train station and whisks us down this brand new road to our hotel, which was very nice at rs300 a night. Life was good again! We rented bikes and cycled around the temples and local villages - Khajuraho is an excellent place to visit in India.
