Left Rushikonda at a harsh 5:15 am and did a ton of highway driving.  We arrived into Konark on one helluva road in the dark !  Elly was a total wreck!  It was so scary and there were so many animals , people, bikes, and buses-with NO lights on!  The hotel we stayed at was supposed to have email, no such luck.  We walked  into town and had a bite to eat and then straight to bed.  Today was 14 hours of driving and we were exhausted.  492 kms today!

Note to future Rickshaw Runners: invest in driving gloves and attempt to save your hands
