Sunday Sizzler!

Today was hot, as in even hotter than yesterday, or maybe just because we were walking about rather than in a car most of the day. Jeni and I explored Manek Chowk market (we were there quite early so many stalls were not yet open when we started our wanderings) and on into the Fernandez Bridge area where students go to buy second hand text books and stationery. I made a few additions to my stash of Indian paper ephemera and Jeni didn't do too badly either. 

We checked out the big Sunday market too. Ideal if you need huge metal pans in an assortment of sizes, or maybe a new handcart or pair of jeans, but not so good for raw textile hunters.


The heat drove me back to base though Jeni lasted longer. After a few hours back home though, the day started to cool a little so we set off out again and got some exercise before dinner. Dinner was hot too...

  1. Hot - there is nothing quite like that heat is there!
    Any chance if spending a day or two in rural India? The contrast is startling!
    Can't wait to see what you bring home!!
    Take care!
    Much love
