Kolkata is such an interesting city. Myself and MK went on a walk around 11pm to feel the city. There I captured this picture of a tea stall where he wont serve tea on credit.

When we reached Darjeeling it was already evening. The jeep drive was tiring. But the whole drive was amazing as I had the window seat. The beautiful curvy road, river along the side and the whole drive as such was great. The best seat would be of that of driver. But he did not seem to be that exited. May just another day at work.

We didn’t have to search for the hotel as we had booked the hotel from Siliguri. The hotel was decent for the cost. We had a good dinner and watched Govind & Akshay comedy at Multiplex. Night was more chiller than I thought.

Matty wanted to go in the train. He had planned to go to Ghoom in Train. But he was lazy to go to railway station to buy tickets. So it was me and MK who had too. But it turned out to be very interesting. The booking counter was not yet open and I needed a smoke (only when it was cold). As it is not legal to smoke in public area we moved out.There we saw the queen getting ready for the day. Myself and MK could not resist. As we entered I was scared as to what would guards tell. But they were very friendly and allowed to take pictures with her. Of course my mobile played a major role.

Queen of hills needs warming up for the journey. According to the driver she needs an hour or more to reach the required pressure. So they will start filling her say around 5 am.

I have openid from myopenid.com . The open id url is thejeshgn.myopenid.com. I use delegation and use thejeshgn.com as the open id url. But something going wrong today. I am not able to login to few of my regular services like
http://www.dopplr.com/openid
http://ma.gnolia.com/signin
http://jyte.com/auth/login

But I am able to login to some other services like
livejournal.com
productwiki, and few self hosted wordpress blogs.

When I try to login to first set of sites. It does not even take me to myopenid.com login page. The error usually I get is timeout or open idserver does not exist. Which means the consumer is failing to read the delegation info. Is anybody facing the same problem?

Example error from Jyte ” Connection timed out attempting to contact your OpenID server”
