some more pics

Our beautiful two months’ excursion has come to an end. It’s back to the buzz and grind of Mumbai now. But a few reminders of the trip here.

In Native American section of Smithsonian museum, Washington DC, we saw some weaving with striking similarity to Mizo designs.



We bought a miniature Cherokee Indian drum from a craft shop in East Virginia. It looks very much like Mizo drum.


Inside Luray Caverns in East Virginia, there is a wonder world of fantastic stalactite formations.















When we came back to Canada, before leaving for India, we took a last walk on this route:






And had this dinner:




Then on our way home.

Great pics. I specially love the ones of the bench and the crooked fences. You must have kind of mixed feelings coming back - the pleasure of being home and the pain of leaving all that beauty.

Thanks, Calliopia. And yes, home is home anywhere but it's so lovely there, no wonder people get so crazy to migrate.

I think I'd be fitter if we had roads like that here :) Two whole months! Lucky lucky you. Red Indian ho khuang khi papawr a ang top.

@Jerusha, the roads are really really enviable. One could just walk and walk and walk... Yes, we did get fitter and healthier, though may be a bit heavier :)
