Delhi Belly...not yet

We arrived in Delhi yesterday safe and sound, has visions of having to push our taxi after he stopped on the side and lifted up the bonnet, dropped it back down, got back in and replied 'its ok'....good good. His name was Sanjay, think that name would have been in my top 10 guesses!

arrived at our hotel, and we literally thought he was having a laugh...the road was full of locals, a few foreigners, cows and dogs with a SLIGHT hint of wee....lovely...that hint of wee came from the urinals, in the middle of the street..sure! thats how they role here...but the street happened to be the same street where our hotel was...

after finally getting a room, and a quick snooze we got hassled and hassled by tramps, tuk-tuks, rickshaws and shopkeepers as well as random people who 'want to practice their english' (who we later read in our book are the main conmen in the delhi biz!)

Today we decided to head out of Paharganj and go see the Red Fort...39'C, Dom forgetting to put suncream on and sarah putting maybe too much on...altho she does have a tanned line where I missed with the cream...
the Red Fort was pretty impressive from the outside, inside was MASSIVE...but it was white. A seperate queue for men and women, Sarah getting looks left right and centre, not to mention a few pics!...we thought we would stand in the shade for a minute, wrong decision!...a swarm of little lads run over askin for a pic of her... I had some competition here!...we swiftly legged it!

after an awesome day we get home to the main bazaar and smelly wee streets..so far so good! will keep updating this whenever we get the net...pretty limited at the moment

.....Oh one more thing, we've found out how to have a hot shower...there is a hot tap outside of our room so we fill the bucket up with that and then pour it over using the jug...both of which come free with the room!!...simple yet effective!
