POSH Delhi

Our last day in India turned into the perfect transition from countryside back to city, from India prices for food and drinks back to prices similar to the States.
Dico and I hired a car and driver for 6 hours and buzzed around to some of the more upscale joints of Delhi which we hadn't realized existed and which transported us back to Colonial times for a while.
The United Coffee House on Connaught Square dates back to the early 1900's, the decor perfectly preserved along with the service and elegance of that time.
I had my first mint julep at the Radisson Blu and said goodbye to Ian and David.
And, while I sipped on a pretty good Sangiovese wine grown and bottled in India, Dico told me the history of the word POSH, which was the word I'd chosen to describe the gorgeous Imperial Hotel.
And then we split a last warm Kingfisher Beer on the rooftop of our funky hotel with Helen, Gay and Lorraine and felt way more at home!!
