Posted by We arrived in crazy Delhi, India after beautiful, quiet and lush Bhutan. When we landed at the airport we hired a pre paid taxi who said he knew where he was going, but actually he had no clue where to go. We drove around in circle for an hour. When we finally got to the hotel it was time for dinner and bed.
The next day I woke up to a bad case of “Delhi belly” so I did some school and chilled. Once I felt a little better we went to the city center for a tour and to have dinner. We had Mexican food because we hadn’t had any since Bangkok. Living in California we ate Mexican food about 5 days a week and we were all missing it.
The next day we went to the toilet museum where we learned everything you needed to know about toilets and sanitation. My favorite toilet was one that looks like a chair but really is a toilet in disguise.
We learned that sanitation is a worldwide problem, especially in India. On our last day in Delhi we went on a city tour to the Jama Masjid (India’s largest mosque), the Lotus Temple (below) and the Red Fort.
We had lunch at The Imperial hotel where my mom and dad stayed in 1994. Then we went to the Delhi train station at rush hour. It was one of the craziest things I have ever experienced. It was so crazy I started crying, but finally we found our train and said goodbye to Delhi.
