The Leela - last days

We reluctantly left the Fairmont but as we were checking out we were so excited to see a traditional Indian wedding. It goes for 4-5 days and the guests were just arriving and this is what they saw on arrival...



Indian dancers! They asked us to join in so Isla, Linda and I did. They move so gracefully and it highlighted how uncoordinated I am but it's about the experience. 


Loved it! 

These were the doors to the hotel. The night before when we arrived back we had a trumpet sounding. This hotel really knows how to replicate Rajusthan era. 

The convoy of cars made our way back to Delhi. Our drivers were wonderful and forever making sure we were ok. I had previously mentioned to the girls that soft drink and chips never tasted so good but they now understand how it becomes a stable in surviving travel in India. 

We checked into the Leela which is so opulent. 



This made me laugh! The man was mopping up any water that was splashed out of the pool! 



That night we were picked up for dinner at Dr Shivanis house. We had a fabulous time and they were very hospitable. We danced to Bollywood songs and there was lots of laughter. We were all given presents.
