Prior to a western inspired dinner with those of us left, it was a mad scrambled to pack and sort one's self after living in a place for two weeks. However not before some sad goodbyes to my roomies Anne and Kimber, Anisha and Lewis and Christena and Tina.
And suddenly there were five. Anisha and Lewis flew back home to the US this evening while the girls - Anne, Kimber, Christena and Tina undertook the trek out to a Bollywood inspired show. I'm sure it's the sequins and dancing equivalent of the Gold Coast's the Outback Spectacular, sans horses. I'm looking forward to stories and pics.
The boys, Roy, Jae Moo, TP, Alex and myself tuk tuked over to Haus Khas Village for some Zo Cafe delights. It was such a delicious, memorable pizza. After tuk tuking back to "home base", it was more sad goodbyes to the boys before I left "home base" for my Indian adventure, part 2.
The Italian flew in tonight and we're making Delhi our base until Monday then it's off to Jaipur for four nights and then home via Singapore Friday evening.
My roomies and I had been discussing the things we'd missed being able to do while living at "home base". For me it was cleaning my teeth with running water out of a tap and not wearing thongs in the shower. Well still no cleaning of teeth with running water out of a tap but definitely no thongs in the hotel shower.
It was strange sitting here in the hotel room by myself this evening...no Anne, no Kimber also in the room. It was so quiet. I was actually really emotional, sitting there reflecting on what a seriously huge two weeks it had been. On top of the emotions I think I've caught a cold.
Namaste x
