Travel Day (and Shawarma)

Reporting from Delhi

Not a lot going on today - I spent the morning in my room finishing my Economics and Security final (Got it in 2 hours before the deadline!) while most everyone else did a short tour of Bangalore. Apparently I didn't miss much, which is what I expected based on the travel guides. Our flight to Delhi was uneventful, but I would like to note that the Indian airlines still serve food in their economy class and have great service despite cheap tickets. Take that United!

Once settled in Delhi, we decided to celebrate our halfway point by throwing caution to the wind and eating at what was basically a street vendor. The food was amazing and the staff found our presence quite amusing, it seems that few foreigners have the guts (literally and figuratively) to eat there. We raised a few eyebrows by ordering too much, but we did our damnedest to eat it all. We were almost successful... I had a pile of bones on my plate testifying to the carnage. (unfortunately I didn't have my camera so I'll have to wait for the picture swap to review.)

Tomorrow, it's an early morning drive to Agra where we'll see the Taj Mahal, to knock another Wonder off my list!
