Sat, Jun 21 - I went shopping at Kahn Market (mostly for ex-pats (non-indians)) and Lajpat Nagar marketplace today. Kahn Market is pretty small and very high-priced, but I found a great store last time I went there and just had to buy some things to bring home to family and friends. Lajpat Nagar is HUGE and very much a "local yokel" marketplace. It's like 4x the size of the big Costa Mesa swapmeet, totally crowded and it was about 100 degrees, so I was sweating profusely. However, I found some more wonderful things to bring home as gifts. In fact, I wish I had time to go back again - maybe next trip, if there is one. I've attached the video I took while I was waiting for my driver to pick me up after shopping. Thank goodness for cell phones, because it turned out I was waiting on the wrong side of the marketplace! What's really funny is that I didn't realize that I left the camera going. You can hear me call my driver, Pankaj, to try to figure out where he is, and you can see him come find me. Too funny! It's a few minutes long, so don't feel as if you have to watch the whole thing. Tuk tuks are the little yellow and green 3 wheeled golf cart looking vehicles.
