August 20-22, 2008 Delhi to Pondicherry

Nehru Place

On Wed., August 20th, Raju's 21st birthday, he and Gopal went to Nehru Place, an electronics market in Delhi so Gopal could get a small, flat-screen monitor for our computer (we were taking it with us to Pondicherry). Around 7pm we took Raju to our neighborhood South Indian restaurant, Vrindavan, for dinner. We picked up an elderly neighborhood guy, Handaji.

At 9pm R.K. brought a car and took us to the train station. Our departure time was 10:30pm. We made it into our seats at 10:28pm. There were moments I idn't think we'd make it. Without R.K., we would not have made it.
