July 28 and I wait to see if my husband has to go back to India on business. If he goes, it will be soon and I won't go back to Delhi, India in the summer. Weather forecast currently is between 100 - 111 degrees F, with thunderstorms forecast. Hmmm, not my ideal weather - heat and humidity. It will only add to the odors, chaos, and filth in India. Not to mention public urinating, crap (yes, real crap) plus other debris in the streets that generate nasty smells and attract dogs, cows, rats, cats, whatever looking for something edible.
Both times I traveled to India were during the winter. The weather was still warm to hot, but it was dry. Both times I missed seeing the blue sky. Smoke filled the air (due to wood/dung burning for warmth and cooking and pollution) and when we landed at New Delhi International Airport around 2:00 AM, the air was opaque. I thought I landed in a war zone!
More about India later... so much to report on.
