Back in business
Actually, it all worked out just fine.
Contacted once more our travel agency, India Someday from Evaneos. They, again, solved it all. Arranged a private car for us at a decent time. Streets, indeed, were fairly empty. We reached the airport without any trouble or blocks because of the strike. Had a quick bite and arrived in Delhi about half an hour early. Because of that we had to wait for our pick up to the hotel.
The next culture shock: Hyper modern hotel, with pub, modern music, overwhelming choice of food. Maybe, the step in between two continents. Definitely, too different from the last few days. Had a good night sleep. And flew the next day back to Europe, without any difficulties.
Right now, everything is unpacked, the laundry done, picked up my car and some other stuff, checked my email. And I am almost ready to step into my “daily life”. Except. My thoughts are still in India. Like very, very much to go back. Soon.
