Quick post about Delhi. There is old Delhi, Dehli and new Delhi. Old Delhi is the old town similiar to Jaipur, Dehli is the old part of the new city, and new Dehli I was quite shocked. Looked like the US. Beautiful parks and lots of trees, McDonalds etc etc. They have a government area that is a blend of Washington DC memorial and the Champs Elysees in Paris. We were there quite late so not sure any of our pictures would do it justice. It was a long road with the Goverment buildings at one end and the India Gate (memorial to world war one soliders) in the middle. Had a reflecting pool on one side and then a lake where people were in little rowboats. Green, flowers, big trees. REally appealing.

Visited three hotels here all world standard and one hotel called the Imperial that was truly outstanding. Talk about a modern city this is really lovely. In the main area of the hotels and diplomatic area you can even drink the water out of the tap. We went to a FANTASTIC restaurant last night called OLIVE that could rival any place I have been in the US. All white stucco, food presentation that was so appealing you did not want to eat it. I had Ken take a picture of one of the deserts but we should have taken the other dishes they were just as well done. It all tasted great too.

Shopping - we had 5 minutes because one girl had bought too many things and needed another bag. When I come back I am dedicating a whole afternoon or day to shopping here. Great litle tops with embroidery for $2.50 etc etc etc.

FOund out about another area to view Tigers with tents that rival the best I have seen in AFrica. A first class train for tourists that only takes 3 hours to reach from Delhi. Sure wish I had a few more days to check that out.

They are also building in conjunction with CCA Africa a new game camp in the area we are going to it is under construction now and then will have a flight to bring people instead of our 3 hour flight and 7 1/2 hour drive. That would sure be better.

Okay off to see Tigers.
