Survived my first day in India OK - arrived in Delhi at 6am, checked into a decent-ish hotel, grabbed 2 hours sleep and then hit the street.
First experiences of Indian rickshaws, as a passenger... surprise #1 is how much smaller they seem than Thai tuktuks. Surprise #2 is that all the ones in Delhi are "clean" 4-strokes running on CNG gas - as opposed to the smoky old 2-stroke engine I'm expecting to be in mine & Kat's.
Grabbed a quick day's sightseeing [Red Fort, India Gate, Connaught Place, couple of temples, wandering around the backstreets of Paharganj etc] while waiting for Kat - whose visa finally go sorted back in London. We're meeting at Delhi airport on Fri and heading on to Guwahati and then Shillong....
