A drive of about Km 440 to Kolkata from Bhubaneshwar, good roads and pleasant weather.

Nothing much other than the same story about lack of amenities on the highway and at the toll booths.

Two at the toll booth - security?

The roads did not have much traffic and again we found that there were few private cars on these roads.

Driving on the wrong side of the road (on a one way highway) is taken as acceptable. No one seems to mind and people continue to do it posing a great threat for themselves and others.

Kolkata at about 4:15 PM when we arrived was easy to negotiate, with little traffic on the road we reached our destination swiftly.

This is day 5 of our journey and we have crossed the 1/3rd mark.

Tomorrow we spend in Kolkata and then off to Gaya in Bihar.
