Day # 1 & #2 - too many hours flight

The journey begins, and we had many hours on flights ahead of us.
But nothing feels better then put our backpacks knowing that in a few hours we are in other side of the world in touch with a completely different culture and reality.




We took our first flight to London at late afternoon on Monday the 24th November. On London we spend the night at the airport, sleeping in the waiting room - enough comfy chairs for three hours sleep.

Our India flight check-in was at 6:00 am, so we didn't expect to sleep a lot. I was waiting to sleep the most at the plain. Must say Qatar Airways plains are really comfortable and have all that gadgets that we love to use on a long hour flight. Even in economy class they have TV screen for each passenger with a good library of films, music and games.

The flight wasn't direct to Delhi, we made a stop at Doha were we had our first "mini" culture shock. A woman in the smoking room is not something they would see everyday ...

On the flight from Qatar to Delhi we had a very good surprise. The flight crew upgrades us three to the business class! Wow we felt like VIP, big lounge chairs to recline and sleep, all the attentions from the staff... too bad it was just for three hours...

Namaste!
After one day and half we finally arrive at New Delhi at 4.00 am (local hour) of 26th November in the middle of a dense foggy morning...
