First day in Delhi

Got into Delhi around 11am after a rather uneventful flight. Sleeping in Dubai airport isn't the most comfortable even with eyeshades and ear plugs. I just can't sleep with people from everywhere constantly staring at me everytime I wake up to look at the time. I managed to get some sleep on the plane, but I was awakened when a stewardess popped open 2 smoke grenades and started fumigating the passengers as she walked down the isle. I quickly realized it was disinfectant. Lack of sleep also caused me to almost chase a senior citizen out of the 27k window seat when I mistook it for 29k.
Anyway, Dan is now a veteran traveller of India, experiencing much during the past week he was here ( check out his blog). We were soon on our way to the hotel. Its true that cows roam freely here, along with squirrels, dogs, cats, donkeys, monkeys, and even more. We spent the rest of the day planning out the rest of our trip in more detail, buying train tickets and getting a driver to take us around the golden triangle.
