bagh

a highlight for me,

textile heaven, a sweet, bustling village- they hardly ever have foriegners to visit.

a drive through amazing countryside, red and arid looking yet producing good crops, palm trees, rocks and a village still using handblock and natural dye techniques.

we had chai in a shop, chatted and looked heaps of wonderful stuff. the adults only speak hindi so Prveen ws busy with them- the kids of the family learn english at school and i had a delightful conversation with them.

then through the vilage past the potters to the print workshops...everyone was so pleasant and accomodating and happy to show what they are doing... and such wonderful work....

great day
