Old Delhi

Old Delhi
We're here and it's hot...that about sums up the trip thus far! Compared to the gentle heat of our December/January visit, it is now oppressive, hot and sticky here, which makes it a bit harder to leave the comfort of the car and hotel! Not that I was about to let a little bit of heat hold me down.

After sightseeing yesterday and a looong sleep to try and shake the jet-lag, we spent this afternoon in Old Delhi. I feel like I am just now getting back into the Indian groove, adjusting to the crowds, noise and smells.

I can't believe I didn't take more notice of the notions stalls last time we were here...the ribbons, beads, tassels and trimmings are just amazing (see first picture). I am going to need to stock up this time! Can you imagine the craft possibilities!?

Alright, off the lunch...tandoori fish and fresh-off-the-grill naan...jealous!?!

oh fabulous... I wish I was there. I can almost feel the heat - sticky and oppressive, but somehow laced with energy :-)
