Day 12 (Apr-23) : The craters filled road to Chandbali


We left for Bhittarkannika, the first national park on our way. It is basically a mangrove forest. Next only o the Sunderbans. The road to place was initially pretty good. But later on, it turned out to be the worst road in our trip until now. Reminding me of the Kunjum pass (see my older blog). I am planning to take a photo of the road on our journey back to the place. The rural area by the road had thatched roofs, children were playing cricket in the dry fields. On child (a very happy creature) was completely naked and was playing cricket with his friends. Neither him nor his friends seemed to mind his state!

We saw parts of really large trucks being carried by other trucks that were large themselves!

We are presently living in a very rundown Orissa tourism hotel in a place called Chandbali just outside the forest. The room is a non-A/C one. The fan has little power and everything it seems is in a state of disrepair. Let’s have the taste of this part of India also.
Tyres of really large mining trucks being carried by other trucks.
