After many years I recently went to India
where, despite a very busy agenda, I succeeded to visit the Golden Temple of
Amritsar. I also did some shopping at the airport.
My last visit dates back to the 1980s. In New Delhi I used to stay at the hotel Imperial, an old, a little run down and
in need of refreshing hotel, where Gandhi and Nehru discussed the independence
of India with the British. Now It has been totally refurbished and transformed into a
palace with rates only rich British and Indians can afford. I had my breakfast
there, however and wandered through the corridors in the search of old memories.
The little jewellery shop where I bought a strand of grey pearls has been
replaced by a Chanel boutique. The Golden Temple
The Imperial refurbished
I bought this cashmere shawl at the airport.
These elephants came to say good bye at the airport
