I reached New Delhi last Saturday and what a trip it has been so far!!! My relatives are stuffing my face full of good food....Mera peth bauth he baragaya yaa (My stomach is too full)!!! So far I have been to Akshar Dham temple, Connaught Place, India Gate, Rashtrapati Bhavan, Bauji da Dhaba, Gurgaon Malls, Sai Baba temple, Shiva statue, Shopping on Janpath which was amazing...This is a famous street located in Delhi which has a diverse multitude of shops ranging from handicrafts, to bags, to kurtis and skirts...the list goes on & on...I saw the shop owners tear down all their shops on Janpath because the gov. officials came through and tried to shut them down (they had used up the sidewalk space, which they weren't supposed to do...plus the gov. officials want their paisa (money) for their own benefit)!! Here's a photo of the shopowners wrapping up!! As soon as the gov. officials left, they set up their shops again! I am heading to Ajmer on Friday and will go to Pushkar...Afterwards, I am going to Rathambore Forest for a safari and to Jaipur...Sonia is coming in 2 weeks and I can't wait to tour South India with her!
