Dave again.....
Ah well, couldn't help myself editing down and posting a few pics from Pahar Ganj back in 1979 just before we're about to head there again. I scanned in these slides a few years ago, but at relatively low res. Still, they're good to get an idea of some aspects of the place. I'm sure there are lots of changes just since I stopped there a few years back on the annual jaunt. For Maggie it'll be all new....interesting to get her take on the area.

This early morning street scene is from the summer of 1979.
It's often just too hot to sleep indoors. |

Not a particularly common site even then. |

.....and a pic of Anne & me in 1979 in Pushkar - this year's first stop after Delhi
A long story to this pic, but not for now.
