Namaste!
Today we went to Connaught place to a jewellery shop.
The shop owner are the fourth generation owners.
We had a nice cup of tea. No hurry in India!
Photo of the shop when it was situated in Old Delhi 1937.
Mum and dad at Connaught place, the British built shopping complex. It opened 1931 and named after the duke of Connaught. It has stuccoed colonnades and Palladian archways.The central circle of Connaught place has now been renamed Rajiv Chowk and the outer circle Indira Chowk.
You can find Reebok, Adidas but we find this old shop selling cards. The shop owner was 81 years old and had been there for 35 years! Mum bought a paper pad, 10 cards and 1 big card for 30 SEK or 3 GBP.
Getting water for the plants! We are looking forward to spring. I don't like this place because of all the young men trying to get you in to specific shops. They are all over the place. Four American girls tried to get advice how to get to Fab India. I told them to go to Khan market instead. The boys tried to talked with my Dad. He is always nice and wanted to talk to everybody. Maybe it's good he can't speak English.
Indian people buy this thing that they chow. They all look very red around their mouth. After finish....
they spit it out in the nearest corner....
Two lovely little girls trying to beg by playing and dancing in the middle of the street. Our driver told us she had a golden ring in her nose. WHAT!?!? When I pointed at her golden ring she became very nasty. Please, don't ever give anything to these children. If you do, they don't even get the money. There are always someone behind.....
They children should go to school.
First time since September we had mango.Yummi!!
