Day 3 - Delhi

I am sitting at a roof top restaurant in Pahar Ganj, New Delhi.

Its 8am and the sun is rising orange through the smog. On the streets the days activities are just beginning. People are burning the rubbish left from the previous night.

This is not the Delhi I remember from last year, the cosmopolitan Connaught Place with bars and fashion shops. These are back streets and at night children play with carts cows wander freely, taxis bicycles and cars compete with pedestrians.

A brief visit and I am off to Nepal.
