Finally arrived in Delhi and am absolutely spent! Slept a couple of hours during the day but know I'm going to sleep like a baby tonight.

It's been awesome so far. As soon as I got out from the airport I smelt dust, petrol and rubber. It was all hustle and bustle and there were a line of green and yellow cabs waiting in the dirt outside the airport.

I learnt these cabs, some of which looked like small mini vans, are made by Suzuki. Specifically, they're called Maruti Suzukis. Very bare bones, narrow, don't take up a lot of space on road...which is good because similar to Egypt, there are no lane markings on the road!

My friend and I caught one of these to her parent house where we will crash tonight. Will try to post pics when I can.

It's also interesting to see the rickshaws. You have the traditional ones but also 'auto rickshaws' which now have a Motor in then.

Foodwise I feel like I've been eating non stop. Lots to eat on the plane and just finished a lovely home cooked meal...

Have tried the Starbucks equivalent here - Cafe Coffee Day - and was surprised they don't do skim milk (or toned milk as they call it here). The guy behind the counter was laughing at me. Also
discovered the larger your purchase the bigger the size of the receipt! Weird status thing.

Will have to write about my Kuwait stopover another time. In the meantime india is kicking ass!
