Departure November 26.
It was a bit hectic. I flew Geneva, Paris, Doha, Delhi. After one day of traveling, queuing, waiting, I eventually arrived at Delhi Airport in a very bad mood, tired.
My travel agent hadn't bother to try and make it easier. She found a group leaving the dates I wanted, booked me on the group, told me we would be 20 people, high class people, excellent organization.
As I landed and saw the mess at the airport, the people I would have to share those 12 days with, etc... I had to burst out, and the first person I found to share my misery was out guide. Poor guy. I was so rude, and now I am so ashamed.
In the end it turned out we were only 10, which was better and easier to live with. Even though they were all French, they turned out not as terrible as I expected. But that I discovered along the way. Because that first evening, I had arranged to meet a client from the Bank, so I let them settle into the hotel and go visit a temple close to our hotel.
I had a small rest and went to meet that client who was kind enough to come to the hotel to meet me instead of having me having to go through the hassle of the Delhi rush hour traffic. We had a pleasant evening, a rather good diner in an international hotel nearby and I eventually went to sleep. A tough first day, but worth the rest of the trip.
