In my last blog I promised to update you on our sightseeing tour of Old and New Delhi. TG Kate had a mild case of Delhi Belly so gave it a miss. TGs Bernadette and Sue took up the rickshaw through Old Delhi and a more sedate car to see New Delhi. Shoes off at the Jama Masjid (The Friday Mosque), then off to Qutub Minar - amazingly built in 1193, Humayan - the inspiration for the Taj, India Gate and the Parliament area and of course a few rug and other shops.
The background is of course traffic and people chaos in the midst of preparation for the Commonwealth Games in October.....It will take
an it !ncredible India effort to pull it off - Go Delhi.

Good news TG Kate is up and about, shopping, giving opinions, up for a brandy and thinking about eating again one day soon ....
Today we tackled Delhi with no real forward planning - interesting - but not the smartest move - it's just not that sort of town! Sometimes all you can do is shake your head...
Off to Agra tomorrow.....
