Nice room. Pigeons like it too.

Not enough just to dump nuts in a mixed nut bowl. This is India. Make the nuts an artistic creation.

Note construction in background. Construction projects are ubiquitous in Indian big cities. India rising. School boys pictured here are India's future architects and construction engineers. Hopefully, the US can lure a few of them with the promise of H1b visas and green cards.

Very inexpensive, efficient transportation. Saving the planet? Walking the talk? Shouldn't we, in America, be doing our part? Except... grandfather the F350.

Above: Hindu pilgrim. En route to Sawaimadhopur. 21 January 2017.

Hindu pilgrim places coconut shell at full reach while prone. Pilgrim stands were feet are currently positioned. Pilgrim takes mini steps the length of his foot to reach the coconut shell. Pilgrim picks up coconut shell. Pilgrim goes prone again. Pilgrim repeats procedure until desired pilgrimage destination is reached. Process goes on for miles and miles... days and days....
