Delhi

Posted on Categories Himalayan Challenge

Hey everyone.

Got into Delhi @11.00 pm and we’re met by Mt Singh, a driver that Steve’s sister had organised.

Formalities at the airport were short and sweet. When we exited the building we were met with a wall of heat, and people.

Whisked away by car and taken to our hotel, The Imperial.

Grand and huge and luxurious. Got in at midnight and straight to bed after a shower. Had a bad neck headache, probably from trying to sleep in the aircraft seat. Most uncomfortable. Would have hated to be in the back of the plane.

Up for b/fast at 6.00. Getting hot now at 9.00 am.

Meeting Mr Singh at 12.00 for a tutu around the city. 17 million people live here in Delhi. So quite crowded.

I suspect that we will be surprised at what we will see later in the day.

Otherwise all is well.

Have met a few of the competitors already. Good to catch up. Will keep you updated.

  4. Good luck Stephen and Corgi. This will be tough one… Mick and I will follow you. The Empetial is amazing isn’t it… Been there for tea on a KLM trip. Go to the Red Fort and the spice market! Mick and I just did the Alpine Rally by ERA in the French Alps. Beautiful but difficult rally. Map reading…
    Take care! Grace de Haas
