Birthday Phrase For Invitation

DAY 20: RETURN TO

Namaste from Delhi, as a penalty for being here and what this means but all that begins must end and this was not going to be different. This day is not much relevant as they have been almost 11 hours driving, but some other things have been, so to tell you also draw some of the impressions that we get in India, at least we have seen and experienced .

again
The alarm rings at 7 am, closing rigor shower and have breakfast pack. Tostadas cafe con leche with 80 rupees. Chaman was waiting for us and when we finished the way to Delhi. It has been long and hard day car. Put us on our way at 8:15 and arrived at Delhi at 6 and some in the afternoon.

We have spent muchisimoooooooooo
heat and we stopped only twice: the first was when we were four hours away and the place could not have more shit. It was a bar to call it that, is where the truck stop, but the bar was seedy, dirty and shabby but ...... Chaman has taken us a tea and a coke and seven up. These last days Chaman always paid everything and then we give the money and today was the same when we asked him how much he owed says to 24 rupees but they were 20 in order .......... we have given 30.



Then we continued to travel to us without the two stops that we have done has stopped muchisimassssss times to ask for I was more lost than lost. The second stop was at about 3 pm and we have seen a restaurant and told it to stop it but the tug, the truth that he was looking forward more than anything else. We ate a pizza every plant that was very rich and so without rice is like another thing ......... or is it our imagination nose. The meal with two pizzas, a bottle of water and vanilla ice cream have been 220 rupees, plus the site was fine and air conditioning and all, all because almost no one lujazoooooo restaurant has air conditioning.

Before the lunch break we've been through a school and four women were hitchhiking. Chaman has stopped and we picked two that have gone before in the passenger seat. One of them was a teacher and we have come to the next village. We have thanked and therefore little Chaman and has been telling all our ITINERARY by India.
We asked for their age and not guess? Do not you imagine how old he is 31 years, anyone would say ...................... and we think that he was 40-45.
After the second Delhi road and to stop the tug, Chaman went quite quickly and denying that he had no money or oil, although we noticed that while we ate has taken a bit of oil. Certainly the oil here in India is between Rs 34-39 seconds stations. Us with all we echo their cry is that fools and worth listening to everyone's problems with the shame .........................

Upon entering Delhi has been a nightmare for two reasons: the otic ca traffic that we have suffered and Chaman to their complaints and asking for your tip. We have said that when we leave the hotel. We had decided according to what you put in the Lonely give 600 rupees to believe okay since it has had in the 14 days, 4 days off and only has limited has lead to sites, we hardly explained anything, however we will hire as a driver and the agency told us that if we wanted give something good and if not well.
The hotel we had chosen what we recommended our friend Ramon (whom we met in Puskar) and can not access the drive as a est located in a rather narrow street and market, so no allow cars to enter. Is parked at the entrance to the street and we have exchanged the e-mail address and write us a paper echo the good he has been with us for the trip. As we have we have written Putting in English very well, as this paper is to give it to the agency.
When we have done all this, as we did not change more than a Rs 1,000 note, we mention that if I had 400 rupees, only had 300 with which we have looked at and we decided to give 700. Gave us 300 and we have given the ticket of 1,000. Where he has seen has told us that if that was her tip and told it so. We says that its tip is 10% of what we had paid the agency or 3,600. We have said that any of the ways that the tip is voluntary and the amount you choose us, well ............... Do not look like it has been. I did not want to open the trunk to get the backpacks and tells us to go to the agency. And always with the extra day, so that we have echo in writing on paper, apart from having solved over the phone in Jaisalmer. Now all we have said angry opened the trunk and gave us the bags, and did not want but in the end has no choice and as he opened the trunk was tearing the paper with our email address and told George that was a bad man . You tried to throw us the backpacks to the ground, which we have not allowed and we have gone the same direction to find accommodation. It is a pity that the story ends well ....... but it is clear that in India everything is well, or pay what they ask or not you are good or not their respect. We're sorry but we pay to the agency and As we told you yesterday, and is that with the system they have, end up drinking their own medicine. At the end we even regret having had anything to ungrateful, but good because this ......... and sabra.
way to the hotel, some brokers offer hotels approached us but we've been around and after a couple of screams by Beatriz that would have left us in peace, and it was not the oven buns. We decided not to stay in the hotel that you had told Chaman by caution and because we are not convinced. After watching other three at the end we decided to Vishal Hotel, is on Market Street but further away than the other. We've got room for 300 rupees and it is quite plain little in Delhi and cheap hotels are pretty crappy normalitos shooting (you'll notice the Lonely). After registering and a well deserved shower, we dropped to the Internet to publish yesterday.

After we had dinner next to the hotel, as there is a German Bakery, and I think we stop here much foreign tourists because they have something more variety in terms of western food. We have eaten a spinach lasagna with mushrooms truth is that super rich, a Limca (lime-lemon fanta type) and a coke 195 rupees.

After dinner we went for a walk around, this kind of streets we resemble those hutones streets in China, and are narrow streets full of shops more than sluts and thousands of electrical wires everywhere, the only difference is how they are always heavy. It is impossible to walk down the street peacefully without you are constantly blocking the way with rick saws for them lame and stores come and tell you to come into his own, and so all the time ........ uffff, really that long ago that we ran out of patience. Here, bargaining is not like China that I passed it chachi, haggling here is not very big, and although you have to negotiate price for everything is very different here besides that you have to be careful with all the turns, something that is not broken, look at this ...... and .... and ...... look at this one and this too, and you do not care to say no, they catch you, you carry, bring you ......... in order that in India.

As they were closing and almost everything we bought some water and went to the hotel to rest the long day.

In summary, always under our own point of view say has been an unforgettable trip and recommend to everyone because we believe that a monumental level here in India there are amazing things. And see every day of its people, customs, etc is something worth seeing, let alone in Varanasi with its rituals and veneration in the river Ganges. We also have to say that the trip to India is hard, and you have to be used to support travel to be here, and not by what you see, there are many countries like this or even worse, but by the daily pressure people. I remember the little time I lived in London, which was nothing more to reach people who told me to beware Indians, and the only experience I had with them was very negative, because I timaron. And they are well, are nice people while they follow their roll, as they see you want to go independent and to move from what they tell you bad ......... ........ Not that everyone is so because it is also true that some of those we have met have been very nice people, but have been less. They may compete with each other that the tourists do not leave you alone, and most people here live from tourism and that makes them so greedy. As we say, I recommend everyone to come to India because it is something worth knowing. Jorge I personally had a very different idea of \u200b\u200bwhat I've found, neither better nor worse, just different. And certainly return back to India. If not for the Indians, would be an amazing country ......... jajajja

Today, that is the next entry as well hang it once we get to Spain, where we will as has been the return trip that hopefully everything is normal and uneventful.

Berta and San, say that once we land we call you by phone and we will have no further contact until arrival in Spain, because in a few hours we catch the plane.

All blog fans give THANKS this adventure we've done to all and hope that somehow you have felt and lived what we do. Kisses and hugs

as appropriate.
