Day 1&2
Arrived at Delhi early morning and hung out at the airport before I eventually dared to go outside. Massive chaos! Got a prepaid as recommended and eventually found a driver...which stopped about 500 meters outside of the airport. I asked him what he was doing and he went. "Waiting for my brother" This off course freaked me out and he refused to go on and after a while another man came into the car. His "brother" they drove me to the city and couldn`t find my hotel but eventually after stopping by a "tourist office" where they first tried to get me to go in. I refused and sent the brother in. After this they finally found the hotel. In the hotel the reception guy asked me for 900 rupees because I had arrived early. I refused and said I would sit in the lobby until I was supposed to check in.Thereby making him say that it was okay and that I didn`t have to pay. I collapsed in my rum and wondered what the hell I was doing in India and it was clear to me- About everyone was trying to screw me over!
During the day the rest of the group arrived. Quite the mix of people and ages, but only two guys! We have quite the Scandinavian collection with two Danes and a Swedish girl. During the day and some rest I calmed down and went out into the market. Crazy amount of people! Day two we spent checking out Delhi and getting some good food at a place called Q`BA. Which I highly recommend! In the evening we went on an overnight train heading for Jaisalmer.
