Hello!!
On Monday we went to a place called Jama Masjid which is the largest mosque in India!
Your not allowed to wear shoes inside and you're meant to have your skin covered but we forgot about that so we had to wear these big and long dress cover things haha. We went to the very top of one of the towers which took us a while! It's a tiny little staircase that seems like it just keeps winding up and up and up. On the way you occasionally have to back up to the wall and get as high on your tippy toes as you possibly can to allow people to descend the stairs. Once we were on top I was pretty shocked to see just how many people were squished up there on this tiny little ledge which just didn't seem safe at all haha. It was an awesome view though! You could see everything! We could even see red fort and Qutub Minar. The little people below looked like little colourful sprinkles!
The only annoying part was how many people ask for selfies! That is always the annoying part about visiting tourist sites! Once you say yes people swarm you and it literally looks like how the paparazzi react when they see a celebrity!
We ate lunch in Chandni chowk and had their kababs which they are famous for! It was delicious!!
We took Vaishali out with us on Sunday to go to an appointment which ended up falling through once we were already there but you know what that means! It means there's someone nearby who we need to meet! Vaishali is so sweet and she was like I really want to give a Book of Mormon to someone can you please teach me how. She then went and started to talk to different people and we finally found someone who would listen and was really nice, Akash accepted the plan of salvation pamphlet and said he'd read it! Hope we will get to see him again! Members are the key!
We had our monthly pump up meeting on Friday! This time we got a big bottle of appy fizz, lays and oreos! Of course lots of motivation to find especially with Elder Millett's inspiring huddle!
The pollution is so bad in Delhi now ever since diwalli! I'm probably gonna die. Just imagine how it looks on a really cold winter morning and like all the fog and you can't see anything yeah well that's what it looks like here except it's all day everyday!! Heard it's like smoking 50 cigarettes a day or something and 12000 people die every year! I was here for winter last year but I don't remember it being nearly this bad and not so early either 😬
I apologies if you have sent me an email and I haven't replied! My emails haven't been working lately and I'm unable to receive any which is annoying.
Love Sister Watts
