6 pm. Back at the hotel - after a great day with T, Mel, and Geoff; but should
keep off the coffee - cannot handle it - I guess since (amongst other things) is probably 3 or 4 weeks since my last (strong) coffee. Saw a lot of kite flying near India Gate. There's talk of climbing tomorrow - at the Old / New Rocks in Delhi (not far away this time, also called Lado Sarai I think). Would be awesome - if the weather is good - it was okay today.

8:10 pm and we are at the Maa Bhagwat resturant. Urine smelling large cupboard would be a more accurate description of the place. T has made further comments about the food quality on Hot Rock - she has explained to Duncan that the budget is not enough. People who are sick (and there are 4 or 5 now in the group), need rice, chicken, clean water: one simply cannot buy this for the allotted 50 rupees a day. Those of us who can / want to, supplement our diets. To put the money in perspective, 50 rupees will get about 2 litres of bottled water. If I survive tonight's meal, I'll be up at 6:30 am for climbing at Old / New Rocks.
