Hello Guys and Girls!
Well we have arrived safe and sound! When we eventually found our taxi driver in the sea of men holding up name cards, we were quite shocked at how many people stared at us once we left the terminal.
The place that we are staying in is comfy enough when we finally get some electricity that is! The reception could do with a bit of work though! It is just a row of old brown leather sofas covered in dust lined up in an open garage port area. There is a double bed and a bucket in which to wash. No hot water though!
Our first full day in Delhi what a mad one! We got a taxi into Connaught Place to find a tour operator that never existed so we walked around and around and around. Then we got a tut tut to New Delhi train Station to get a ticket for trip to Taj Mahal for tomorrow. But when we got there they would not let us in the station as the scam men tried to get us to buy else where. So we were sent in a another tut tut back to Connaugh place where we escaped the con men ha ha. We hatched a plan to go undercover on the Metro so we would arrive at the ticket place the other end and avoid the crowds! but it took us back to the scam men haaahhh. So we escaped again back down to the Metro back to Connaugh Place.
We got talking to a young boy who was pretending to be a student who took us to a travel agent. We then hired a driver for the day for a tenner and he took us to see everything in Dehli. We went to the Red Fort and India Gate. I am still worried about all the people staring at me all the time!
Tomorrow we go to the Taj Mahal in Agra with the same driver Suneil who we have now kidnapped ha ha ha!
Thanks for all the message's Ang Vince keep them coming
