Colourful houses in Deeg


after our visit to the water palace we just had to have a walk in the village 
it was so colourful and it looked so clean compared to a lot of other places we've visited...


as always on narrow alleys, streets....
sometimes it's a wonder that they make it through....
and do you know what ? sometimes they don't...


a newly laid pavement....beautiful....



in and around all houses you'll find the charpai.....daybed....but here it's the bed and the chair...
usually this is the one and only furniture...


the typical little "kiosk"found everywhere...on all streets...


I guess she just came from the ghat that I showed you in my last post...
now with clean laundry


an overloaded transport...as always...


happy faces...I'm quite certain that they don't see visitors like us very often...


a fort with an impressive moat....don't know how old or who built it...but I guess the Jat's did...


love all the colours....



a nap outside...warmer than inside the house...this time of the year you'll find everybody outside in the sun in the mornings....to get warm...it does get cold at night...for us cooler but for the people living in these houses it's cold....


selling peanuts from his trolley...the roasted peanuts are really good....


it was such a fun little walk we had in this little village 
(population wise there's no small villages in India compared to the rest of the world)
it's so much fun to explore 
especially with my dear friend Kathy !
