Here we go!

Our trip to India begins, Finally! Over the two days I've been booking accommodation and internal flights for the next 30days...so many stops that the banks blocked my card on a fraud warning, hoping everythings even booked; my brother in law sniggerly commented I will be spending more time checking in and out of hotels rather than seeing any of India...


India is anything but a small country, and travelling between cities are at least 800km or a few days by road according to google, the frustrating issue also is although the flurry of lowcost airlines that fly to almost anywhere(will write about my experiences thereon in duecourse) that aside planes only fly to main cities like Delhi and Mumbai. This means that every ticket I booked was in and out of Delhi, I really hope Delhi airport which is apparently new doesn't become our second hotel...


This highly complicated and time consuming routing process had forced me to change my itinerary with a last minute decision to stop over to Bangkok and Chiang Mai in place of South India...


New Delhi is a 3 hour flight from Dubai, although the plane took off about 35minutes late we were welcomed by the air staff in local greet "Namaste" atleast we've been recognised as Indians, the flight is unsurprisingly full of Indians, in tradition with bunches of well behaved children and grandparents, almost every passenger brought along ATLEAST one pull along bag(including myself);
