New Delhi, India - Blogabond

Welcome to India

Long flight from Chicago, 14 hours, but very few people on the plane. Customs was a bit slow, but our bags were waiting after we got through. Changed dollars into rupees and headed out the door. Rajat, our taxi driver, was waiting with a "John Gleason - Global Arts Village" sign and smile on his...

Day 14

This last day was a blur. After a lazy morning at the hotel and after I bought the most beautiful carpet I've ever seen, we hired a driver, a good one this time, and drove all over New Delhi. A stop at Masjid-i-Jahan Numa was well worth it, except we were cautioned not to walk around in the...

Day 1

We arrived in New Delhi quite late last night and thus didn't sleep much overnight, although the hotel was lovely. We checked out around 8:30 a.m. and arrived at the airport quite early -- lots of time to kill and nothing of interest a the airport. Ellery is essentially on a hunger strike,...

With the faint hopes of winning, our (me, timul and jaideep) preparations were more focused on packing and traveling but not for competition as we have been told by our super seniors that we dont need to hope against the hopes. Tickets were booked and some practice were put into practice for...
