I keep going back to this place and taking folks who visit because I love it….the people, flowers, house hold accouterments. The chaos and randomness is invigorating; the conversations I have with the vendors are always fun.
is just as fantastic as inside….the streets that surround it are equally as interesting and good for pictures.
The visit to the Bangalore Palace was interesting….the exterior is stunning but basically the place is pretty run down – I guess it opened a few years ago to the public.
Wow! What an amazing space in Bangalore…great art, lots of open spaces and plenty to learn – an very cool, eclectic hangout. While technically a school, they have a number of permanent galleries that have some great Indian masters as well as amazing folk art!
So, I went to pick up Karen and my new friend Lobat after a retreat they finished just outside of Bangalore.
This woman is always sitting on a street I often take selling pottery of various kinds…wind chimes, gods, bowls…today I got a decent photo….while she seems a bit sullen, she was wearing a fabulous piece of fabric!
Karen's visit provided another opportunity to explore the area around the capital building (Vidhana Soudha) in Bangalore. The weather was fantastic – sunny, with awesome cumulus clouds floating through the sky.
Yeahhhoooo….it is Mango season again. Apart from making myself sick by eating too many (little tip I learned….don't eat mangos with water….the combo makes your stomach rumble quite loudly), I have been sampling all of the different ones available here….amazing variety in taste and texture.
