ack on the road again. We left Rishikesh at 3 and spent the night in Delhi before heading on to Agra.
I took this picture just minutes after being on the road. After relaxing in Rishikesh all day it was back to curves, animals and trucks.
Another villager delay, this one lasted only a couple of minutes. They were playing the dhol and dancing around. We were told they were celebrating a Muslim holiday.
This is a picture of the India Gate we saw on our way out of Delhi on Friday morning.
We had a pit-stop at this interesting tourist spot. They sold all sorts of things that Agra and Rajasthan are known for, and they were all literally 10 times the prices elsewhere. Even the food was 10x the price. When I say "literally" I mean that a parantha which we got earlier for 15 rupees was being sold here for 150 rupees.
I had to get at least one picture of these messages which are written on every truck. "Blow Horn" and "Use Dipper At Night". This one had a bonus phrase, don't get confused and think they mean collie (like the dog) they mean "coolie", which is a name used for porters and sometimes generally for any unskilled laborer (some consider it a slur, so don't go using it willy-nilly).
How many people can you fit on a rickshaw? More than this, I assure you.
