"Grand Tour": Full Day Sightseeing in Delhi, December 11, 2019

Let the record show! A humble list of places and proper names I visited today with my great tour guide Paramjeet Singhj!

  • Jama Masjid of Delhi (the third largest mosque in the world) (first location of locals taking photos with me)

  • Bicycle rickshaw tour of Old Delhim (that kid WORKED to move my fat ass and my tour guide’s, narrowly missing all make of moving objects in tiny winding streets with many a pothole)

  • Spice Market at Khari Baoli (chili spice so strong your throat burns)

  • Drove past the Red Fort several times and India Gate

  • Raj Ghat (memorial of Mahatma Gandhi) (2nd location of locals taking pictures with me)

  • Sri Bangla Sahib Gurudwara (largest Sikh temple in Delhi) (I made chapati in donation of the thousands of people they feed for free, and then ate free lunch with thousands; somehow my guide thought there was something about me that would be accepting of eating a simple meal of holy food)

  • Humayun’s Tomb & Isa Khan’s Tomb (where I met some very nice school children)

  • Shopping at Mughal Jewelry and Craft Emporium!! (there are no words for how much stuff I bought… and am so excited about!)

Came home to Facetime with my dad and his wife, discussed next parts of journey with my travel agent (so excited!), and had a nice dinner on the rooftop!!
