Hanging with the monkeys.

Posted on June 30, 2019

Since I was in the area (Gurgaon) I just had to see my old “friends” the langurs. It was almost exactly two years since my last visit. This time without my driver Pawan though. He had to give the cab driver directions over the phone so he was kind of involved <:

On the way we drove past the HUGE Hanuman who now has been painted all orange !

that morning I was just hanging with the monkeys

they have amazing tails…..they are so long so they are kind of all over the place <:

cool young one just hanging, or stepping on one of those long tails. Just look at those toes on the small one.

They are curious and playful and all over the place.

All of a sudden we saw two Indian mungos among the rocks…..I have to show even if the picture is not very good ( due to the fact that they where far away and I still don’t have any telezoom lens) It kind of looks like it have feathers don’t you think?

I’m sure happy we decided to visit even if the temperature in Delhi/Gurgaon was like 41 degrees celsius already in the morning. It’s such a cool place and amazing encounters.

Hope you are enjoying your weekend dear reader. See you soon.

Colourful stroll.

Posted on June 24, 2019

The houses here in the southern parts of India are a lot more colourful so it’s fantastic to have a little early morning stroll down a village street. Well, maybe not in all villages ……but for sure in this !

narrow alleys used for washing and hanging

the cutest little boy who walked with me and was so interested in the pictures in the camera. It was nice to be able to show him the pictures.

morning dishes and a little chat with a foreigner.

I love to walk around in neighborhoods , especially when they are so friendly as in this.

I hope you enjoyed the morning stroll and that the colours made you smile. I also hope your week has started out in a good way. Mondays are still Mondays unless you have vacation and maybe some of you have. I’m still struggling to get some sort of routine in my life. I’m that kind of person who needs routines to feel good. Anyhow, enjoy your day either in the grass with a good book or at the office.

Talk to you soon.

A village filled with colours-Colours of India.

Posted on May 29, 2019

A morning ride along the road led me into this colourful little village. It was the temple that led me here but I didn’t even get a picture of it. Once I started getting pictures of the village itself I almost forgot about the temple. Then it turned out it was closed anyway. But I had a nice stroll in the tiny village in the early morning.

Walking into the village I never thought it would be colourful at all. I was just aiming for the colourful temple.

Yes, it was the green bucket that caught my attention . Also the electrical wiring that goes via the tree branch up into the palm tree and then ?..( starts between the pink and purple house )

Morning routines. Hair being braided for school and next door the wash is being done.

Of course the village little snack shop was open.

Met this lovely lady who had dressed up to match the house, or maybe these where her favourite colours.

She didn’t think she was pretty enough for the picture ! I showed it to her and tried to explain that this is one of my favourite pictures and that she is really beautiful.

Visiting tiny villages out in the country side is something I really enjoy. Especially in the mornings ……before the heat sets in and the sun is too bright for any pictures. Hope you enjoyed the visit today <:
