Day 1 of the conference

So we came to the Jaypee hotel --5 stars. The problem was that they didnt have enought rooms so we waited till 10 pm to get settled in. That s when our opwening planery was starting, so AIESEC people were dancing as usuall but in the back 3 senior citizens were sitting and watching curiously what we were doing. First they asked me what is this suposse to be I said international organization, and went dancing, Mirko stayed so they asked him "Is this like something against world order?" Mirko said YES. When we started yelling the official greeting Yo Bitch they freaked out and ran away fearing for their lives:0
UPDATE
Later that same evening, I went to my room and found out I am staying with this guy from Hong-Kong. Of course I immediately offered him rakija which he hesitately tried and almost suffocated, too strong for him. A few minutes later we got another roomate, this guy was from India(nickname-CHOW) and liked our rakija. Yes and just to mentione the day before in Agra we bought 750ml of indian hard wisky called Doctors Choice. Then a bunch of people gathered in my room and we tried doctors choice, belive me this is by far the most disqasting drink i have ever tried, I couldnt get the flavor out of my stomack even after rakija, rum, beer and votka. There was this African guy who actually liked it. Now we call him the DOCTOR. Our so called kamasutra party sucked, and we couldnt get in the IC party (just to mentione we were severly discriminated all the time compared with the IC delegates).

Another update Almost forgot to tell you all, when I came to the conference I was wearing my Cuba shirt, so people would come up to me and ask me if I was a trainee in Cuba. There is no AIESEC in Cuba, so I started telling everyone I was MCP Cuba. Then they automatically concluded Mirko is also from Cuba.

When we got off the plane, we met a few AIESEC-ers, and went to the exchange office to change money. I exchanged 200 euro and got a stack more than 2 cm thick. I never felt so rich.
Started to wave it around And then when I realised all the money is stapeled togather with two really big staples. Luckily I had my swiss army knife, but it still took me like 20 min. to get my money separated. Thenwe went to the hotel by cab. It had air conditioning, but in India they turn the air conditioning all the way so the difference between outside and inside is like 20-25 degrees. It was like 40 outside, but our room AC was set to 15.
We will add photos when Mirko recharge his digital camera.

Here is the update. We couldnt find any computers in Delhi. Also I forgot my camera so dont expect any photos.
The trip
Day 1
Hungary
We came with the train, got a room near the station, eat some bad burger king food, and went to a casino and made20 euro.
Day 2
We went to the plane, had breakfest at the airport where they robbed us blind==5 euros for a small slice of pizza( we were starving).
The airplane was a relic from the world war.
Then we got to the Moscow airport. We were hungry again so we decided to try a thing called Siberian palenka== a russian specialty. It was actually hot woter with chevapchichi. I think they must have had that in gulags in Siberia.
We borded the plane and the captain was totally drunk. He could hardly pronounce the announcement in Russian, but when he switched to English it sounded like the trrrrip willll lasst foor fiveeee hmmm... no .... 4 hoours and hmmmm .... twenttyy fivve minnuttes. He also forgot the distance and it took him 2 tries to get it wright. Later the stuardess said that the trip actually lasts 5 hours and 30 min.
The rest tomorrow! The Times of India!
