Title: Hello from India Post by: rip|Vitalix on January 07, 2007, 12:26:02 PM Hey all,
I'm into my fourth day stay at Delhi, India. This is quite a place. Abject poverty sits next to western mall luxury. Cows wander the streets along with cars, trucks, beggars, and lots of garbage. They don't advertise BF2142 here but apparently Gears of War is a big deal. I keep seeing Xbox360 shops about. I just visited the Taj Mahal today. The place is HUGE. Took 20 years to build and it's full of semi precious stones. Hawkers were everywhere trying to sell you crap. There is an overabundance of labor here. Four people do the job that takes only two. There's lots of tipping to do but the amount of rupees is really negligible. We all live like kings compared to most of the people I've seen. Hope you guys are doing well. See you virtually in a week or so!
