Ranvir arranged for us to have a special yoga and meditation session at 8:30 this morning. Half of us took part in this experience. It was very relaxing.
At 10:30 we went to the lounge to learn how to put on saris. Ranvir brought a sari for each of us ladies to use for this activity. A female hotel employee was there to put a sari on each of us. I volunteered to be first.
Paul took lots of pictures of me, then I took pictures of some of the other ladies.
Paul then took several pictures of our group of ladies in saris.
At 12:30 we left for the airport. When we got on the plane, Ranvir had gotten exit row seats for Paul and me so Paul would have room to stretch out his legs. What a difference a few inches more of leg room makes!
When we arrived in Delhi, we were taken to the Pride Plaza, an airport hotel. We ate dinner about an hour after checking in. Since it was Valentine’s Day, Hugo and Kris spread some glittery paper hearts and candy hearts on the tables. The hotel restaurant had given most of their salads and desserts valentine names. Thinly cut beets and watermelon slices were cut into the shape of hearts. I was impressed with the clever names for each salad and dessert. There was such a wide selection of food, one couldn’t begin to taste everything. The dinner was delicious.
Shortly after dinner, we went to bed. Ten of us will be leaving the hotel at 4:15 tomorrow morning to fly to Southern India.
