CHAPTER II - Arrived into the wild... and it is really wild!!!

Blondie arrived in New Delhi!!!

but before that..... yesterday....

On the flight DUB-LHR no adventures...strange, huh?
A clown crossed with an angora rabbit - that's how Blondie looked like on that plane.. Thank God, she didn't put a make-up on, otherwise security wouldn't let her in, suspecting her of trying to terrorise the plane with her looks....yeap, that's how bad it was.

LHR - Terminal 3

- too much Coke
- too many cigarettes
- spotting Indian women and visualising herself wearing salwar kazeem...she'll look so cure in it!
Decided not to experiment with Indian black market individuals and to buy a new camera at the airport! Picked a lovely Lumix - strongly recommended by Muriella. Happy Blondie and her new camera left Dixons to purchase some liquids, when few minutes later an airport announcement sounded: "Miss J Soltystsiki please return immediately to Dixons!"
And that was the moment, when blond Blondie realised that she left her credit card there.....no comments!
Nervous and anxious, she decided not to prolong her shopping spree and proceed directly to the gate...However, her flight were not on the board...panicked by that time, she run to a gate of a different Delhi flight, where she had to use some charm and "lost poppy eyes" technique in order to obtain her flight info!!!
Happily ever after, Blondie boarded the correct plane, found the correct seat and that's when she really left for the wild...!!!
The plane was full of Indian people, no backpackers on a horizon..., the food was full of coriander and all three seats where entirely for her, so she could have a good sleep!

Today...
Booked the flight and a trip to Kashmir! Flying on Thur...the guy in the tourist info of course offered himself as a potential husband material, then lunch, again full of coriander, and then frantic looking for a way back to the hotel in a tuk-tuk....cause Blondie lost the hotel business card and of course couldn't pronounce the name of the street (read: couldn't remember it)
the pictures will follow shortly!
ah, crazy, wild city New Delhi.....
