India visit '08-'09

Spent a couple of weeks in India in Dec-Jan, visiting relatives in Delhi, Chennai and Kolkatta. A few concerts, a bit of shopping, a short trip out to the countryside, where I was treated to the delicious irony of scenes like the above image. A traditional-style party in Kolkatta, where Sujit dropped in for lunch...

Enjoying a daab outside Delhi's Tuglaqabad fort and tombs...

One day Shahid dropped by for a chat...

and then it was time for our return!
