Fabulous Delhi

Hello friends!!! Its been a fabulous vacation and now its back to reality! I am jet lagged, and while the rest of the house sleeps, I am tempted to blog away....
In India I spent my time in in Delhi and Kolkata. I also vacationed in Indonesia, and had a brief stopover in Japan, on my way back to Seattle. I come away with a lot of wonderful memories.
My first love of course is Delhi........as my husband said "you come alive in this city". Its so true!! Its my hometown and a city like none other :-) Winters in Delhi are simply the best. The music concerts, the endless exhibitions, plays, cultural events, and the fabulous "Haats" (markets). I spent a day at the Dastakari Haat just before I left...........a colorful extravaganza with endless arts and crafts!! A perfect end to my Delhi vacation. Anyone heading there soon.....please take me along :-) For all those planning a visit to Delhi, do stop by "Dilli Haat", the venue for many such markets throughout the year.

Twinkling lights...

Twinkling lights, loud music, the hustle and bustle, melas and bazaars (markets), chaotic traffic.....its the countdown to Diwali (The festival of lights). Diwali in Delhi........there is nothing quite like it! This city knows how to do it the right way:-) I am delighted to be here at this time, and thrilled to be with my parents.
Here are a few snapshots from their home. Do join me as we celebrate this lovely festival right here at My Dream Canvas.....
