2 days in Delhi

The wait is over - heading to the airport in 3 hours to meet Papa :)

Not much excitement in the last couple days. Spent a lot of time on my photo-blogs since I probably won't have much time for that when my dad's here. Went to Connaught Place for some errands yesterday and today. For those who live in my neck of the woods, it could be compared to Dix30. A large outdoor shopping complex - but less modern, with the shops built into an old circular ring-like structure with a colonnaded facade. Not sure if that painted much of a clear picture. Stopped into a bookshop, and I'm afraid I did it again. Left with a book on Reiki, a set of Indian Tarrot cards and accompanying book, and a magazine. I'll just have to start carrying things on my head like the Indians do!

Well, geez, that's about it... this is way too short. Hmmm, what else can I come up with... Had a great coconut-flavored ice-coffee at Cafe Coffee Day both afternoons at CP... Weather is pretty decent - hot sunny afternoons, but reasonable nights. Beautiful bright pink and white flowers are in bloom... Ummm, ok, I'll stop if I have nothing else to say. 

Looking forward to seeing papa tonight :)  We'll be in Delhi tomorrow then off to Rishikesh on an early 4-hour train Friday morning. So excited to be going "home"! Two days in Rishikesh then off on an 8-day Himalayan glacier trek to the source of the Ganges - amazing! Then a week in Rishikesh when we return, and the rest is yet to be planned. Flying home on the 30th... less than a month left!

So there. If I don't have time to write when my dad's here, you'll have an idea of what we're up to!

A quote to end, that was on the bookmark that came with my book purchases yesterday:
