Update from Sylvia (02):

It’s 4:30PM here. We are relaxing after a couple of hours spent sightseeing. Today we went to Lodhi gardens which houses the tombs of some unknown people from the 1400s. Afterwards we had lunch with Bhrett’s dad at a local Indian restaurant under … [message interrupted] … Anyway we had the local cuisine at a restaurant that shakes every time trucks pass overhead. The food was really good and spicy. Afterwards we went to the Gandhi museum which was pretty neat especially since I just saw the movie. There were footprints which traced his last steps before he was shot. There was a display of his wordly possessions- a walking stick, fork, knife, rock, spectacles and case. As we were sitting on the grounds watching all of the people pass by a man asked if he could take a picture of me with his wife. I felt like celebrity! Anyway- Delhi is just as you might have imagined- lots of people lots of traffic, motorized rickshaws, trucks, bikes all in the street sharing the road with cows. Everybody honking the horn - totally disregarding all traffic laws.
