"A soul never thinks without a picture"

Aristotle rightly said it. Found the quote in the flight magazine on my way to India. Pictures & images always on my mind and what a perfect thought to begin the trip with! Some captures I managed in the midst of eating, shopping, celebrating and lazing around in Bangalore and Ahmedabad.
Back home (Dubai), back to my blog and back to squeaking! :)

 

 

Rangoli being made for Diwali. Infact in Bangalore what i noticed was that making Rangoli was not just part of a festival or occasion, a small simple one is made everyday and you will find it outside every house in Bangalore. It is thought to bring good luck.

Tulsi,(holy basil) is a sacred plant common to every Hindu house in India which is worshiped everyday.

 

 

The making of Gajra by my mother in law :)

 

 

 

 

 

Loved the Bangalore weather, a welcome break from the Dubai heat!!

clicked on the airport while leaving the city :)

 

 

Milk kept for the cat and look whose relishing it!

Having chai in glass at the roadside ketli :)

 

It's that time of the year again!

As I have already mentioned in my previous post, about going home for Diwali (the festival of lights as its aptly called) and 2 homes this time making it double fun. Its a month long stay in India!! so it got to be fun and nothing else, apart from me putting on few more kilos of weight. ;) I am not sure whether I would gather anytime to blog in the middle of all the enjoyment & fun with family, friends and food not to forget. But I wish to bring back lots of memories and experiences with pics to share. Till then wishing you all a super Diwali filled with love, happiness, lots of family time and obviously prosperity - thats what the festival is all about, remember Goddess Lakshmi! :)

 These are some pictures from last years diwali at my home in Dubai.
