Del
Dilli was visited. What larks were had.
Old friends were met and new developments in their lives were discussed.
Blogger buddies were met in real life, and friendships carried forward.
Long-lost cousins were discovered. Ah, the UHF that is blogdom.
Faces were put to names. One would have liked to spend more time with everyone, but there's only so much time.
And one was introduced to many bloggers, and their fascinating blogs, which have since been added to one's reading list.
Many, many non-bloggers were met too. After all - why should you assume that none of my friends have a life. Some of them were convinced to start blogging. One feels responsible for the drop in GDP over the next year.
There will be a post on Dilli soon enough (I should give fair warning to all the Dilliphiles reading this - its NOT going to be complimentary. Apologies to everyone who made my trip absolutely wonderful, but all of you combined cannot make me see that... place you guys live in a positive light).
But before that, a couple of posts on the main purpose of the trip - an engagement in the family. My rockstar cousin proceeded to get himself hitched. The coming together of cultures in a Bengali-Punjabi wedding can only mean that the Gamesmaster is going to do his Salim Ali thing. And how can one forget the whirligig of random relatives - in fact, this will take up two posts.
One will now get on to doing other, less important things.

Welcome back! Glad you had a wonderful time, even though you have decided that you wouldn't have anything nice to say about my city.
Also, thanks for the fair warning, I'll stay away from the next post.
A little note though. There are many old timers in the city, especially residents of the old city who call it Dehli (as it used to be, before the Punjabification of the name).

Does anyone know if it really snowed in Dilli like it was supposed to? A lot of celebs were interviewed,one of whom happily commented that it would save them a trip to Europe!
And just as an aside, why does blogging have to go 'offline', if you get my drift?

Tell me the name of your post only refers to the city and isn't related in any way to Ctrl+Alt+Del? :-)
