Nizamuddin Dargah (Mausoleum) of Sufi Saint
What you can't see is the narrow walkway from when you enter that weaves around and through to the temple itself. Impossible to recreate this one in photographs.
 |
| Everybody wants a selfie with Justin, and sometimes the rest of us. We often politely decline but here said yes. |

| Old water reservoir inside the complex...note kid jumping from top left. |
 |
| Stall for flowers you offer in the mausoleum |
 |
| In the alleys leading to Nizamuddin there are lots of food stalls, some of which make some amazing kebabs! |
Humayun's Tomb
This historic site is a short drive down the road from our place
 |
| In the heat of the day, even ice cream sellers are resting...this is a common sight in Delhi, with rickshaw drivers, and street cart vendors asleep on their 'vehicle' |
View from Jama Masjid (Muslim mosque)
 |
| Looking down from the mosque tower onto part of Delhi |
 |
| The barefoot climb up the dark spiral staircase of the tower was worth it for the view... |
 |
| Looking down on the square within the mosque. Walls of Delhi's Red Fort in the distance. |
 |
| Fun kids...and the tower we climbed in the background...don't worry, it wasn't leaning! |
The streets outside Jama Masjid in Old Delhi

| Man making paan |
 |
| Kitchen of the original Karim's, famous - and always crowded - restaurant in old Delhi. Man climbing through the window to the cook area :-) |
 |
| Street view from temple steps to Old Delhi. Karim's was straight ahead and down an alley to the left |
 |
| Looking the other way... |
Besties...
First picture was when the BFFs met in Seattle. We surprised her friend by picking her up at school. Second picture when I took them out kayaking in Puget Sound.
Seattle bound...
AKP's first trip back to the US...
 |
| Stunning view of the Himalayas from the window |
 |
| This is what happens when you have a really long flight...boredom leads to passing the phone back and forth, each taking and modifying a more ridiculous picture. Passed a lot of time! |
 |
| Cousins |
 |
| Munchkin captured this artsy pic of me...thought it was kind of cool. |
Puja (prayer) for the move
Justin's office moved locations and it is tradition to have a blessing for the new space.
