Moving on from Delhi

It has been a week since we landed in India and we've spent the time mostly trying to get used to the way India works.

We did manage to get out and see Connaught Place, Red Fort and the Jama Masjid, but the majority of the time was spent near our hotel on the Main Bazaar.

There have been a number of demonstrations here in Delhi over the last week. Just as we arrived, the night before there was some rioting near the mosque over the Popes comments on Islam. Luckily that didn't go further than that area. And on Wednesday, there was a protest from the Traders Association over something called "sealing". Thousands turned out and some trouble came about causing the police to fire into the crowds. 4 people were killed. Luckily again, that was a day we decided to spend indoors.

Yes, it's time to move on.

But here are some pictures from our week.


The Main Bazaar...



Connaught Place...



Yes, we broke down and ate Pizza one day for lunch! :P



But we did manage to try Tandoori Chicken and Vegetable Korma with Naan and Rice...
