Daily activities...

While in Ahmedabad last week, we visited Mahatma Gandhi's "Sabarmati" ashram where he lived and philosophized for many years- and ultimately set out for his famous Salt March. Here is a photo montage of Gandhi's daily activities; they included studying, meditating, reading, praying, caring for animals, etc.


We decided to compile a collection of photos of our daily activities in India.

1) Being a tourist attraction; having Indians request a photo taken with them... (notice their tight grasps)

2) Trying not to be trampled by cows in the streets.

3) Soaking in daily life... and the dichotomies between the streets and the palaces
