DAY 35

... and this is what we saw on our first journey in the new car. Two camels and two elephants going along on the inner ring road. Contrary to possible belief, this is not something you see every day.

DAY 33

Just outside our house some people have built a little shack where they come every morning to iron people's clothes for five rupees a piece. They use these giant irons filled with hot coals.

DAY 32

This guy has set up shop on the corner of a pavement fixing people's motorbikes. There are guys like this all over the city. They hang tyres up to advertise their services. It's a shame Ed didn't bring his motorbike... this guy might have got it on the road for him :-)

DAY 31: ONE MONTH IN INDIA

Today I have been in India for one month. To celebrate, I have decided to post a video every month of the boys showing you different places in Delhi or around India. This month they are showing you the Jama Masjid or Friday Mosque, pictured above.
Apologies for the bad quality of the video - I'm still working on the best way to edit the clips together... and also be warned: the presenters are a bit cheesy :-)
Here it is: http://youtu.be/TI0VqoljNyA Enjoy!

DAY 30

We've had our first guest to stay - Daniel. He's been down to Old Delhi and came back with these tiny wooden birds for Oz. They're about a centimetre and a half long and super cute. In other news, we felt the Iran earthquake today and my office was evacuated. Never dull in Delhi.
