Street scene
Man cooking in street of Delhi Saturday 26th April Time:- 11:35pm
We spent the day learning about the job we are to undertake tomorrow and touring two local hospitals. We have been informed that there will be plenty of work for us to do.
This evening we stayed in the hotel for our evening meal. It was a buffet style meal made up of various curries.We were able to find some that were not too hot! At 9:30pm, Geoff and I decided to go outside and take a few photos before turning in. When we got outside we spotted a wedding procession and saw the wedding party in all their magnificent finery and wonderful head gear. There was a firework display too. We were invited to join in the celebrations and watch the various ceremonies.
We were on our way back into the hotel when we spotted some more celebrations going on in another part of the gardens. They had a band playing and again we were invited to join the party. We sat chatting with the guests and listening to the band. After a while we decided to go back to the wedding party for an extra half an hour.

Public toilet block - ugh All in all we had a fantastic evening, having had the opportunity to chat to many Indian people from many walks of life. We can't wait to We are melting even with the minimum amount of clothing on.
