Delhi

My time in Delhi is coming to an end, and I am still not quite acclimated yet.  Haven't slept a full night or had a day where I feel like eating, but I am making sure I'm drinking water and getting myself outside, even if it is for just a few hours in the morning.

I was able to get to the market to buy clothes, so I am building a wardrobe now.  I got a phone as well, the cheapest I could find that will send me my emails too.  It's a comfort thing, and I'm sure it will make my time in the mountains a little bit easier if I can still be in contact. Some may say that defeats the purpose of being up there, but I would go crazy for two months up there without it.  I leave early tomorrow morning on an express train to the base of the mountain where I will be picked up by an acquaintance from last time I was in Mussoorie.  He will take me up the mountain and to my guesthouse.

I remember it being much harder last year to acclimate. I wasn't happy for a week or two and I didn't feel like I had made the right choice of coming back alone for at least a few weeks.  This time, however, I do not feel that way.  Maybe adjusting is getting easier because I ended up loving travelling alone last summer, or because things simply get easier with practice.  Whatever the reason, I am not questioning my plans or decisions and am happy to begin the next part of my journey tomorrow....I just hope the temperature really is cooler in Mussoorie!
