Breakfast was on our own today, we went for the breakfast buffet at our hotel, the Jaypee Siddharth hotel. Fresh fruit, omelets, bacon, yogurt, northern and southern Indian food, coffe, tea, assorted pastries, and juices. Something for everyone.
At breakfast, we met Min from California and Sue from Minnesota, they are part of our tour group.
Then we hired a taxi and driver for the day. We left the hotel at 12:45. Our first stop was the Lotus Temple, famous for its architecture. Shoes off before entering the temple - they provided a bag to carry our shoes.
Our driver dropped us off at the corner and we were off

We made a quick stop at the Delhi Haat. Didn't buy anything, saw some nice items but resisted purchasing anything.
Our next and final stop was the Iskcon Temple (Hare Krishna).
The grounds of the Iskcon Temple.
On the ride back to our hotel, we spotted two cows in the middle of the road and numerous monkeys near a forested area.
Our tour starts tomorrow after breakfast.
