Delhi...continued

Well what can we say, Delhi was chaotic, polluted and noisy but also interesting and fun! We saw Hamayun's tomb and the Red Fort. We also spent last night at the Commonwealth games and enjoyed watching the England team win the men's and women's 4 x 100m relay. The Indian's were going mad for their star triple jumper!
We are also beginning to realise that India is full of bureaucracy - books need to be filled in in triplicate, everything needs to be stamped at least four times and if it can be any more complicated it will be - just because they can!
Now it's onto the next chapter - Nepal. We've just arrived in Kathmandu and will be here for the next 10 days trekking. Don't expect to hear from us for a while as I don't think they'll have internet in the mountain tea houses!! Karen's phone doesn't work here and John has got rid of his number so we are going off the radar well and truly!

    Who exactly is writing this? Do you have a journalist following you around and keeping us up to date with your moanings?

    You'll be glad to know the tennents left my house in a right state and had to get cleaners in. Taking it out of their deposit so no problem really.

    Much love

  2. I agree Mikey, maybe they have hired a ghost writer to travel with them and blog it for them.

  3. Lol, Karens phone doesnt work as she is with JT......wish I hadnt cancelled my Airtel one, that would have worked ;-)
    It is written into ours that they have to get gaff cleaned before they go so no bother there. Will need to be redecorated by then anyway I think.
    Hows things with you? settled in?
    Hope you continue to enjoy my round the world rants!!
