The Arrival



The flight went well, and we arrived 01:30 in Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGI), New Delhi.
Moving the whole family to India also includes our dog Zico. Formerly at Danish/Swedish Farmdog (like 'Kvik' in Matador), now to become a Danish/Swedish/Indian Farmdog :-)
... by the way: Thanks to all my Arla IT colleagues for the much apreciated goodbye gift - a complete DVD set of Matador  :-)

We only lost one piece of luggage, and luckyli it wasn't Zico.
Bringing a dog to India is not as hard as they say, and Indians actually likes dogs very much. The only thing to be aware of, is of course the risc of diseases, which means that Zico cannot get in touch with the stray dogs of India (which you see on every street in India).

After customs and all the necessary bureaucracy, we finally left the airport about 03:30 in the morning. First two nights on hotel and then finally off to the apartment - our new home in India.

We live in a so called 'Compound' together with people from all over the world, including Indians as well

Our apartment is in Tower A, 14th floor

View from apartment 23:30. The areas with no lights,
are poor people living under metal roofs just a few hundred meters outside
our compound area.
India is really a country of contrasts....
