Today I went shopping at Sahara Mall by myself. There were mostly men at the mall and LOTS of them. I was the lone white woman. I was bumped from front, back, and both elbows. Could have been the crowd but I think it was because I was a lone white woman. In the stores, the sales clerk(s) stood right at your shoulder and I stepped on one lady's toes about five times. Get OUT of my way! I know they think they are being helpful, but it was very annoying. I wonder what they do if you want to try something on?

I went to a small jewelry store where it was not crowded and tried on about every necklace in the joint. I also had coffee. Yum. Hotel coffee is very bad unless you can gag it down black.
It is truly a sight to see - people sleeping on the sidewalk, living under bridges, any place where there is some shade. Right as I was stepping out of the mall onto the sidewalk (which is mostly a dirt path) a man walks by with four donkies. Cows are everywhere, too. 15 million people live in Delhi. Mostly I see men and boys but some women.

Sounds like you guys are having a great time - despite the heat.
I saw that there was a Baskin-Robbins at the mall you went to. Did you try it to see if tasted the same?
It would drive me nuts to be around all those people and have them bumping into you constantly.
Thanks for having the blog so we can read about your adventures.
Love,
Betsy.
