Well the 2014 adventure has come around so quick this year. For those who don't know Me and Mrs G have flown to Delhi arriving today. We have volunteered to spend a couple of weeks volunteering in a school in the Delhi slums. Mrs G likes to do this kind of work I have accompanied her for two reasons 1. I love India and 2. all the recent sex attacks on foreign tourists.
The third week of the trip will be to spend some time in Amritsar at the Golden Temple and relax at the guesthouse we found last year.
Arrived all in good time in Delhi on a Virgin flight, M25 to Heathrow was a nightmare 2.5 hours , but were surprised when my oldest and best friend turned up at the airport with the family to see us off. (Thanks Mate)
Following the arrival we got a taxi to the charity and met up with Freddy a co-founder and he sorted out a few things including keys to a motorbike (cant not ride for three weeks). A while later we went to the apartment we are staying in and met up with another volunteer Polly. There is another volunteer here to but he is at Agra this weekend.
Following a sleep we went out for dinner and a bit of shopping to the local Mall. Mrs G bought some Indian clothes. Early night tonight and a trip to old Delhi tomorrow, tomorrow afternoon will try to get the bike started.
Monday morning is the start of the volunteering.
Update and pics will hopefully follow on a daily basis.
