Traveling

Flying in India you board at the front and the rear of the plane.. there is no first class seating.  What I’ve read about India is wide social and economic differences are undesirable. 

Security was unlike the U.S.  There is no order.  You place your bags and purses on the belt for scanning while Indians are shoving their stuff in with yours.  All women are brought behind a curtain in patted down by a female officer.. in the meantime your wondering if your purse is still there!  An Indian women in front of me must have sensed my concern because she turned around and said “I don’t think anything has ever been stolen here”.

The plane ride from Delhi to Bangalore was only 2 ½ hours but it was very bumpy and a little uncomfortable.. especially the sudden drop that made everyone gasp about 2 hours into the flight.

I have had a sick stomach since day 2 in India so the flight was nauseating.  When I arrived in Bangalore, I was happy to see more bland food on our buffets. In Delhi everything was spicy unless you were eating raw vegetables and bread.  I like spice but this spice was not agreeing with me.  It took about a day in a half of eating no vegetables or spicy foods for my stomach to start feeling better.
