Just popping out..... Back in a jiffy!!!
Been in Delhi for five days now, and just about getting over the initial culture shock!!! In fact, the longer I've been here, the more it's grown on me.
We've kept Rich's driver, Pawan, pretty busy. He's been ferrying us about and taken us to some of the local tourist spots. But he's happy enough. It's a big deal for him to be seen wandering around with a couple white blokes. It's as if he's showing us off to all the other locals!!!
What has surprised me is the number of Westerners we've seen - hardly any!!!! Only a handfull so far at some of the tourist spots!!!
Went to the Bahai House of Worship (Lotus Temple), Humayan's Tomb, and a few other Temples yesterday. Got some great photos, but been unable to upload any yet!!!! Which is pretty annoying!!!
Today we went to Qutab Minar, which was amazing!!!!!! It was nice to be left alone for once and take things in at your own pace, without a local guide hastling you and rushing you around!!!
On the way back Pawan took us to another Temple. A huge white place rammed full of locals watching a performance of song and dance performed by young children. It was really good!!!
Rich has the weekend off, so we're going to head to Agra tomorrow to see Agra Fort and Taj Mahal. Loads more photo opportunities!!!
See you all soon,
Hope you're all enjoying rainy England!!!!!!!
