First day in New Delhi

Well today was my first day in New Delhi! I arrived at 1am and was picked up on time (yay because my friend waited 3hrs). I was lucky to come on the day that the place I am staying at was hosting a Mango-Lia Day! We hoped on to a car and headed to a nice place close by where we were greeted with mango necklaces and lots and lots of mangoes to eat!!! And boy were they delicious! I ate like 10 and then I was stuffed!!! After that we had dominoes pizza for lunch...but as you may already imagine it was a little different! All vegetarian of course (I hope I lose some weight while I am here ;)) mine had pieces of corn and cheese! It was good. After we ate we headed to the pool, but this was not so much fun, as there were 4 ladies including myself and 20 old men came in and joined...some only with underwear on... (offically first culture shock) And so we fled the situation and took a small taxi and then I rode the metro! Which was super cool because they have a section for women only. On my ride to The Grand I saw the contrast of the rich and the poor, one side literally was mansions!!! Beautiful beautiful homes!!!! While the homes in the other side were not so nice to say the least. After the metro ride we finally arrived at our destination which was an absolutely beautiful hotel, we headed to the pool where there was nice music and free food! The pool was great and there was people from all over the world there, we had an amazing time, and now I'm back in my temporary home:) what a day! Can't wait to start my internship!!! 

delicious mangoes!
