Three Days in Delhi

Three Days in Delhi

Tuesday, 03-03-2015 — Thursday, 03-05-2015. 

Days 195 — 197. 

Our last three days in India sort of bunched together. One day we did nothing but make the six-hour journey from Jaipur to Delhi. Then we spent a day catching up on some of the sights we'd missed the first time around, and tried unsuccessfully to explore the neighborhood a little bit. Then we ate at India's best restaurant and got ready for our departure to Istanbul.
