It has been very strange coming here, but we both love it so far!
Over the last week we have tried great food. Stephen have a few work mates over from Norway for meetings here in Delhi this week, so we have been out with them in the evenings. It is me, Stephen and then 15 other men, I feel like the only woman in the world! Why can't they bring their wife’s so we can have a chat?
Last night we went to a place called Backara, it is an Indian restaurant and quite famous. They ask if anyone is Veggie and then give you a green napkin/dress that you put around your neck, if you are a meat eater they give you a red one. Then you order lots of little dishes and eat it with your hands, it is quite tricky because some dishes are quite saucy. Stephen and the boys ordered lamb, and it came on the bone, so you would have to pull pieces of meat of with your fingers to put on your plate first then pass it on.
It was really good and we will go there again.
We have no news what so ever about the apartment...! Frustrating.
We have got the thumbs up from the owner to move in, but now it is Stephens company that is taking their time writing contracts, checking the security etc. They say that maybe we can move in the 15th or so, but they don't know! That is another two weeks!! What is taking them so long???And also if we wait that long we might loose the place.
We have had nice weather the last few days, well the whole week really, but the last two days we have had a little breeze as well. It is about 35 degrees and it is getting warmer each day. Stephen is in an aircon room all day but I'm out shopping, meeting other wife’s for lunch and lying by the pool. Life is good.
Next week I'm meeting a man who runs a place for the children on the street, so hopefully I can go and help out a couple of days a week there. That will be very interesting and probably quite hard as well, I am very weak when it comes to children!
