Lord Krishnas birthday - Janmashtami
is celebrated today which means school is closed and it's a holiday...again...I'm not complaining !
for devotes it's a day of fasting and praying
for me and M it meant that we got a day to explore ... so we went to the arts and craft museum in Delhi
together with our swedish friend Staffan.
terracotta statues from Tamil Nadu
...Mogul carrier with wooden wheels + some metal...imagine buffalos or elephants pulling this thing...
lots of wall paintings from different parts of India
one area holds cult artefacts
it's a really nice museum...takes about an hour if you don't spend more time in the impressive textile part of the museum....which I have done...today there was some renovation going on and no vendors outside but since it was M and S first visit it really didn't matter...
S hanging on to his roots.....what's the name of the tree... I wonder ?
After an hour of culture we headed for.....
come back later and I'll tell you.
