Delhi and home
Our final day took us back to Delhi and Garden Estate, baggage and Shirly were still in Bangalore, so Josie made us a cup of tea and we headed out through the madness of Delhi traffic, and out to the airport.
With sadness we said good bye to Davinda - he may have been sad to get rid of his crazy Aussies, or relieved.
So back to Singapore, and onwards to home - it has been a fantastic ride - we'll be back
Things to leave in India~ random toileting - anywhere! pushy salesmen, the caste system, weird water, the pollution.
Things to take home~ A word in the ear of Ganesha each morning, a hint of Baggages enthusiasm for life, some new friends, lots of great memories
Namaste, Ramram and Danyavad

Pushkar
The final Push -Kar
Our final stop off point was the famous village of Pushkar.
Pushkar is well know for it's annual camel fair, and for western tourists landing their and getting stuck!
We did';t see an over abundance of camel (probably seen enough anyway), but we did see many tourists who looked like they needed a good wash, and to be sent on their way. Similar scene to Rishikesh.
MIke and I went for a walk to enjoy our final piece of market chaos and catch the local scene, which was great.
The picture is of our door man at our final Palace - a remnant of the raj, but beautiful!
Tomorrow, with some sadness - we say good bye
