Day 120, 121

Delhi and India are done! In five hours time a taxi will arrive to take R and myself to the airport. We will fly to Dubai, as I wrote last time, with a stopover in Bahrain. I'm excited - India has been, largely, a drag. Too loud... too crowded... too dirty... too many demands on my rupees...

I've actually developed a visceral reaction to Hindi pop music; it's so screechy and grating that I actually become ANGRY when I hear it.

China has a sense of decency and a sense of the space that humans require to remain sane. India lacks that sense.

But nonetheless, the last few days here have been okay... I went to the cinema twice with R and spent some hours walking in circles around Connaught Place, Delhi's finest commercial district. I spent a small fortune on food, both western and Indian along the way.

I'll really miss the HBO in my hotel room.
