First of all it's REALLY HOT!!! Unfortunately, we weren't able to go to see the Taj due to a railroad strike leading to increase congestion and disruptions on the road. We were quite disappointed especially Dhruv. We did however see the Red Fort and the gateway to India, which was pretty cool!
What has been most interesting for us has been the street vendors (selling pretty much anything for money). Some examples have been jasmine flower hair wraps, coconut slices, toys, magazines, and the most interesting was false beards at the Red Fort. We go to sleep to honking, and wake up to honking. Everyone just beeps their horns constantly to tel other vehicles to move. The vehicles are interesting as well. Auto rickshaws, mini cars, motorcycles, and even Mercedes! McDonald's even has motor bike, which delivers, but no hamburgers only chicken and veggie burgers!
We did not have good luck at the U.S. embassy. We were not able to file our I600 form. Apparently they changed their policy on June 1st. They no longer accept walk ins on Friday for adoption paperwork by appointment only. So, we have made an appointment for Monday, June 16th and we will have to file everything on our way out instead.

Dhruv must have been very tired to fall asleep during a meal. Poor kid! I really think that is funny that you are in India and eating Chinese food and Dhruv is having pizza. It sounds as if you are having a good time. Love, Mom
