New Delhi




What a great day again today. This time a tour of New Delhi - somewhat of a contrast to Old Delhi but many of the same special unique qualities that I'm sure are only in Delhi. It was a perpetual traffic jam to all the sites - Parliament Buildings, the tomb of the first Moghul ruler [a mini Taj], a minaret [tallest stone structure in the world], New Delhi Golf Course [big hit with guess who] and a Kashmiri weaving shop. We're off soon for dinner and the experience of Diwali. The air will be smoke filled and all will be in a party mood. I'm posting 2 pictures with this. One of the snake charmer from yesterday and one of celebrity Nicole. The Indian army at India Gate loved her big time. We leave early tomorrow for Agra so I will leave you with 'HAPPY DIWALI'.
