I went to the famed India Gate yesterday. I didn't visit the oversized gazebo on the left though. It serves no known purpose. Luckily for me, it was Sunday and the buses were relatively empty. So, here I was - standing in front of this monolith, often read in Social Sciences textbooks. The surrounding looked like a Sunday picnic in some public park. Emaciated hawkers were peddling their wares (surprisingly all were hawking gadgets that radiated an alien blue glow), ice-cream wallahs lined up along the roads and of course the ubiquitous chanawallas.
Then it started raining. And when it rains it pours in Delhi.
Walking in the rain is fun if you have company, especially of dusky dames. I had none. Zero.Zot. Not by a long shot. Seeing the (wet) couples canoodling was no encouraging sight either. So, I paid my "homage to India's amar jawans" and left off as fast as my legs would carry me. A certain song by The Police came to my mind as I was getting drenched in the rain.
Later , I began hunting for the elusive momos. Don't ask me what momos are , I have no clue. A travel site described them as "dumplings of sheer joy". After fourty five minutes of loitering around the "institutional area" and numerous blank stares, I gave up. And I returned with a heavy heart.The quest for momos shall continue on another fine day.

Are momos something to eat? There are many things that give sheer joy!
@spandan - point taken
@bozo - yup
I agree...momos are awesome. Have them steamed and not fried.
By the way, the "oversized gazebo" used to have a purpose. It housed some Brit statue, which was later dumped unceremoniously into some shady garden.
well now here's a catchphrase,
"Hi, I'm XXXXX. I like my momos steamed, not fried"
