I have done so many things since Friday!
Friday I went on a class field trip to remains of Tughlakabad, a medieval city/fort and tomb of Ghiyasuddin Tughlaq. Then I went to market/crafts festival, Surajkund Crafts Mela, on the border of Delhi and Haryana. I ate an amazing dosa and bought a beautiful blue and white skirt with a row of elephants and camels on it. Then, my two of my friends and I decided to venture to another market, Janpath market, and explore a bit. The Janpath area was quite tourist, but I did get some very nifty pants, which I am currently wearing, that are lightweight and good for hot weather.
Saturday, I had a lazy morning and went to a Sufi Celebration in the evening. At the celebration I listened to a Sitar Concert and some Dhrupad singing. Videos below:
Today, Sunday, I woke up early and met my friend near the Delhi Museum of Modern Art. We spent the entire day in the museum and saw so many beautiful paintings and an incredible exhibit by Anish Kapoor (the guy who did the Chicago bean!) Dad and Joseph, y’all would have totally loved this exhibit! We went to the Pandara Market area for lunch, which was more expensive than some of the markets I’ve been to because it is a touristy area. Nevertheless, my friend and I finally found a Chinese restaurant that didn’t rip us off. It was incredible! After lunch, we went back to the museum for the remainder of the day until it closed.
Pictures of the weekends extravagancies:
(be patient with the Chipmunk mating call one. It's a video so it takes a while. You will love itttttt)
P.S. Joseph, I saw some little kids in soccer uniforms and soccer cleats today...
