Setting off...

We rushed to the vessel with all the packing, and, in all this rush, I had actually forgotten the fare!!!



Thanks to Aneek. He actually saved me a real embarrassment!





Whistling away, the boat set off. Wading the waters of Brahmaputra.




Moments later, everything had pretty merged in, and it all looked a confused mass!



It was a huge vessel.


Our seats at a side, overlooked by the deck in the middle, followed by the engine room. The driver stood at, one-and-a-half storey! The toilet and the kitchen were to the other side.



Swinging his loaded bag, jingling with nickels and dimes, came a man.


 Fare. Seventy bucks. To Oiram Ghat.


Sincerely following, in came tea, with a tray of patties.



Tea: four bucks, patty: five.



The busy waters tasted appetite.





To be continued.....
