Namaste India! South and North

Again to india this month!

This time Hyderbad, Delhi and Gorakhpur. Yes the last one I doubt you have ever heard of, or have any idea where it is. It's a small city next to the Nepalese boarder where I went for a weekend wedding. And what an experience that was. Normal daily comforts were definitely not there but gotta look at the positive and embrace the different experience.

First stop: Hyderbad, good morning birds
Love the masala dosas they make for breakfast! 
Day 2: Delhi, hotel really nice but air quite crap. As usual....
The city is surprisingly green but heavily polluted 
Feels like waking up at a space station but seems they are "ecological" heaters 
The 40 degree hot dry air is really nice on a bike! Never get late for work when moving like this 
Not sure how great idea it is going on a highway 
Normal sight on the road when driving around Delhi, muumuu
Logistics done China style 
After 9 hours in the blistering sunshine it was great to come and have some ice cold Indial locally crafted new beer 

Gorakhpur! Wedding time, check out pics of something you probably never seen before ! Getting picked up from the airport first! Was a military base forbidden to photograph at. 

How many people can you stuff into 1 tuktuk? Many 
Bääbää
Some Indian dancing, we did a 5 minute Bollywood dance as well. Someone filmed it, would be fun to see it someday 
 Bling bling chariot 

 Cooking for the dinner tonight, so clean with just a few thousand flies all over the place 
 Ready for a wedding 
 So cool costumes ! 

 Ongoing rituals with the priest 
 Sultans of Gorakhpur 
 Few hours transfer in Bangkok, out for some sunshine before next flight home to Tokyo
