04/09/2005: "Delhi"
After visiting Chandigarh, Shimla, Jaipur and Agra, I am sitting in Delhi waiting for my flight to Dubai. Sitting in an air-conditioned internet cafe is a relief from the scorching heat. I must admit to being somewhat happy that my trip is coming to an end - interacting with people on the street whom we knew were almost certainly trying to cheat us is an exhausting job. It makes me a little sad that it hid from view much of the beauty of India's culture, past and present. There is a dead dog lying in the street, it's carcass being devoured by birds. Nobody seems bothered. But I have seen people lying nearly like that in other places.
Now I will be enjoying two days of luxury and idleness in UAE (totally cultureless, I guess) before flying back to London.
