Sunday June 25th ...continued


Then I got persuaded by a rickshaw driver to take a tour with him. He gave me a price which seemed reasonable, so I climbed on. His tour turned out to be mostly of shops, but he did go down some alleys and I got some pictures of some colourful doorways that I would not otherwise have seen.

I also saw this rather nice building topped with a cupola; and these potted plants surrounding an archway through into another alley or property.

I must also share with you this Delhi-style traffic jam. The 3-wheeled taxi is coming one way and the motorscooter is going the other way, and there is so little room that not even a motorscooter can pass. The ensuing discussion looks pretty friendly, and it all got sorted out in the end.

Some of the shops the rickshaw driver took me to did manage to part me from some of my money, as I acquired two tops (which don't fit as I've put weight on!) and a pair of small pendants which I've mounted on earring backs, and which I'm very pleased with.
