Off to the airport.

Taxi arranged, bag on board ...



A spot of dodge-em cars with other taxis and trucks along the way:





Air India domestic is at the International terminal. No queues at whY check-in, or at whY security ( which is done by the army). An amazing place!





Oh, and the view from the office:

 

[RooFlyer]

My office for the next few days. Wish I hadn't have looked.
