I guess I am going to try and choose a few photos, among those that are more meaningful for me as a way of remembering this great trip.
That first day in Delhi was mostly dedicated to visiting places like the memorial dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi

Outside the Mosque, we left our shoes next to these that didn’t belong to our group

Mostly, I felt that I was looking at everything from a distance, at zoom length, or through the window of our coach. I was not sure what I could or could not photograph, yet

Here women were praying at Jama Masjid Mosque
But already, I was impressed by the different shapes and colours that caught our eyes

a mixture of colour, tradition and modernity

Am sending this from Jailsamer further on West. Wifi opportunities are
scarce and our days are very long.
I must say it’s very hot (today was 35•c) but people and landscapes
are just wonderful. I am having the time of my life. I can’t thank
each of you for your kind messages but they are really appreciated.
Sorry for the iPhone "quality" of the photo. I AM taking loads with my
normal camera.
Till next wifi connection…
I am the kind of traveller who doesn’t really get ready until the last minute. But this time, I’m off for several weeks and I’m worried I will forget something.
I don’t usually wear sunglasses, but everyone’s been telling me that I wanted to protect my eyes against dusty winds.
Off to Rajasthan in a week, here is my brand new pair of sunglasses, a large cotton scarf to protect head and arms from the sun (I loathe hats) and of course, my beloved iPhone, with a guide book and a couple of murder mysteries, to read on the road.
When you walk Champs-Elysées towards place de la Concorde on the right side, besides the sight of autumnal Paris, you can see a temporary exhibit of some twenty years of Vogue covers.
Here’s my favourite actress, icon, model of the XXth century.
No wonder couturier Givenchy loved to create dresses for her!
Ile Saint-Louis has often inspired artists of all kinds.
If you are in Paris, don’t miss JR’s giant exhibition entitled Women are Heroes
JR had quite a crew of volunteers helping to paste huge pieces of photos, like a giant puzzle.
I got some of them still working this afternoon, when the grand opening was tonight.
A few more photos of the exhibition here
