India - November 2001 - Page 7
These are some pictures from my tour in India. It was a 15 day tour that covered Rajasthan.
Warning: There are a lot of pictures and they are large - 1024 by 768 so it
may take some time to download them if you have a slow connection.
Michelle, Cindy, and Kerri in a tuk-tuk. Normally only 2 people sit in a tuk-tuk - we were 4. Indians can do even more.
Our local bus. It was the best looking one on the lot!
Our bus driver - clearly regretting his luck at getting us for passengers.
Inside the local bus. We are foolishly smiling before the 100 indians cram on board.
A friendly Indian family we met on the local bus.
A local market with lots of sweets for the Diwali Celebration.
Another picture of the stall. Note the picture near the top - A Hindu God?
Temple built for some dude that predicted some Raj would have a boy child in 9 months. Now Indians travel to here to make a wish (usually for children. You tie a ribbon in the lattice - when it comes true you travel back & remove the ribbon.
A woman with a sack on her head.
Entrance to the Keoladeo National Park - a bird sanctuary. It is a world heritage site. The guide pedals the rickshaw & points out birds.
