Chandi Chowk

We boldly ventured back to Old Delhi, into the craziness that is is Chandi Chowk. Yet this time we were accompanied by Anita and Priyanka. Having guides made the experience a lot less overwhelming, and having more friends made it a lot more enjoyable :)

Here are some pictures of the helter-skelter, wire strung streets of Old Delhi and us lounging in numerous sari shops trying on the most gorgeous saris.

If you read this please tell me which you like the best, I may attempt to go back and get one.
I know I already have one, but the ones we tried on today seemed a lot easier to maneuver in than our Bengali silk ones. The silk is tricky fish. Plus they were so nice. Note to my Indian friends: Get married soon so I can wear my saris!

Metro station (we got chased and yelled at for taking pictures, oops...haha!)

Walking around Chandi Chowk, scarves up to keep off the heat.
