There are many, many things I love about India.  

I am sure I am waxing poetic because we will be leaving soon – on to a new adventure – but everyday I am privileged to see amazing things – a wonderful melange of contrasts that sometimes feel like they only can happen here.  

I was on the way to the market a few weeks ago.  As was often the case, that meant spending copious amounts of time in the car, stopped in traffic.  Thankfully, I had brought my camera as a distraction. On the way home, I was luckily able to grab the shot below right before the traffic began to move again.

{As a side note, these horse carts are one of my favorite things on the roads in Bangalore – the paint jobs are fantastic.  They are growing increasingly rare with all the motos and nanos clogging the streets now.  

Astoundingly,  similar horse carts are available for rent from various places around the city should you feel so inclined.  One potential upside – street wandering water buffalo and cows might be more inclined to allow a fellow quadruped to pass with more ease than something on 4 wheels.}
