Arrival in Delhi

I am now successfully in Delhi. I met up with my taxi driver relatively easy. I had a little bit of a hard time finding him (my boss had used him before so we had set up for him to pick me up) but only because there were so many people; it just made me glad I had my cell phone already. And I got to where I’m staying pretty quickly, I’ll be excited to drive back to the airport tomorrow when it’s light out so I can actually see more of the city.

I’m really glad I’ll be meeting up with people I know this weekend and that my friend will speak the language. I feel like (ok I am) an awkward foreigner who can’t understand a word of their language. Just between checking in and getting dinner, I feel like I’m blundering around. But everyone is super nice and eventually everything gets worked out.

Now I’m going to try to get some sleep so I can try and adjust to this time change as quickly as possible. I head to Kolkata tomorrow evening. I’ll be staying at a University Guest House there. I am hoping that they too have internet and if that’s the case than I will keep this up, but if not, I’ll just keep writing and post whenever I do have access.

Miss home and the people there but am excited about this adventure!
