I'm in Delhi

Hello there everyone

Well this is my 2nd day in Delhi....

This place is amazing..I cannot even now sum up what an incredible place this is

So far I've seen an elephant,loads of cows,camels,people hanging out of cars...masses of traffic,rickshaws,markets...and so many people

the marriott hotel is simply stunning. They salute you when you comein,wash yours hands (if you let them),,,five star all the way

This is juxtaposed with the harsh reality of what is mostly an impoverished 3rd world country

there is a shanty town right next to our building. the builders simply camp up next to the building site and move on when it's finished

A woman approached the car yesterday carrying a baby, begging for money. It's a hard thing to see and be exposed to

The people here are really nice though. We're going to a full on party tonight..should be pretty cool.

I'm also going elephant trekking on saturday....

it's really hot, really strange and will be an adventure that I will remember forever..

Mark I've just realised that you're the only one with this address..Will you send to all the others

Guys please post notes and keep in touch

Next blog I will hopefully have learnt some Indian phrases to impress you with

For now you will have to do with this one

Jumanji...is that even Indian

seya later

    Two things: 1) change the settings on your blog so people can post anonymous and 2) did you register your mobile for foreign use before you went (if not you might not be able to send texts)?

    Now go enjoy and elephant curry...
