After months of planning, discussing, and dreaming we met at the airport and set off for our gate. We were blessed to have only one layover as part of our trip, and about 16 hours in the air. In our various states of exhaustion we heard the pilot make the announcement welcoming us to Delhi!

Walking off the jetway we entered a modern and surprisingly relaxing airport. This was very quickly met by our first of many contradictions to come. The humid air and buzzing horns of the outside world shattered the calmness of the airport, but served as a proclamation that we had arrived. Off to a comfortable hotel bed and a good night's rest.
