Delhi, Terrible 18-hour-bus trip to MANALI

20^th Sep, 2010 Monday
the last day in Delhi

fruit store in the Main Brazzar

The 5^th day in Delhi/India. I spent more than an hour searching for somewhere can do the color printing, but with no results. I guess it’s just very difficult to get a new ordered ink delivered very soon after using up the old one. I was supposed to give that Indian family I visited yesterday their photos. I guess quite a few travelers had dropped by and took pictures of them, but maybe none offered them photos. Now I myself become one of these people, it makes me feel terrible. Anyway as Ben Said, at least I tried, it is better than doing nothing.

Monday’s Metro was not crowded at all! Me, Ben and Kalle arrived at the Train Station just on time. Before 5 o’clock there was still plenty time to kill. EJ went to the UN, I guess he’s interesting in getting a job there. While three of us and Brad wondering around the Main Bazaar doing some shopping. I couldn’t and I don’t like doing shopping between trips in such a short time, so me and Ben ended up sitting in a Café, while Brad and Kalle were more like those crazy shopping girls, busy picking souvenirs for their friends back home. EJ and Brad are quite good with this area (like the Pros), normally in this case I will just acting very lazy and let the Pros lead the way.

I felt very happy thinking that I will leave Delhi very soon. Not only that this big, crowded and noise city really giving me headache, but also I feel safer staying away from those gun shooting and suicide booming terrorist attack.

waiting for the bus to come

We paied 350 each for a non AC bus, but in the end we pay 200 more to get in the AC bus to Manali. It was still cheaper, because normally you have to pay around 700 Rupees for an AC bus. However, the whole nearly 18 hour bus trip was a shit to me. I puked 3 times on the way, feeling so sick and stupid>”<. I guess this is the longest but trip I have ever had. I don’t know if I’m going to take the same bus back to the south…
