'assault on the senses' really sums it up well, the sights, the sounds, the smells, the bumps as the rickshaw rider detours through every single pothole on the road, and not least of all the tastes! All five senses are being stimulated in new and .. interesting .. ways every minute of the day. beautiful temples, and in the evening old delhi, tiny alleyways sporting amazing diversity of wares and characters.. the spice markets - wow! oppressive smells as we approached the chilli vendors, was doing ok untill eaning back on stacked sacks of dried chillies as a new sack was slammed onto the pile, dousing me in a fine spray of chilli dust!!
can't get enough of the rickshaw rides, be it auto or cycle I just love weaving though the manic traffic, and the entertainment it provides... women nursing babies as they balance precariously on the back of motor cycles, men riding high on a stack of crates picking their way into the cargo as they go...
