Last day in Delhi*

Slept in and woke up to very smoggy views over Delhi and a delicious buffet breakfast. We're both still recovering from colds and didn't feel like doing any sightseeing, so we decided to wander around Connaught Place and do some window shopping. The minute we left our hotel, a man claiming to work as security at The Met approached us and started a friendly conversation, which quickly turned into him trying to get us into his friends tuktuk to go shopping at a "special Indian bazaar" because the shops we wanted to go to didn't open until 1pm. We could smell the scam a mile away, rejecting his offer and continuing onto Connaught Place.

Our window shopping turned into proper shopping pretty quickly as we found a lot of things we needed to buy were on sale anyway. We say "needed" because all of Mike's socks were holey. After squeezing our shopping into our bags, we made our way to the airport, boarded our flight and arrived in Sri Lanka in the wee hours of the morning.Les mer
