little kids in the train stations
i wanted to mention that while in agra station i came upon a brilliant way to keep the kids entertained and keep them from asking for money....
i carried stickers and bindis and handed them out and played stick the bindi in the middle of your forehead with the kids.....THEY LOVED IT....not only that but afterwards, they stopped any other kids from approaching us to beg for money>>>>>it IS one of my best memories because instead of taking the harsh route (ignoring them) i got to play with them and make them laugh and maybe (i hope) give them a but of fun too>>> it also had all the other foreigners wondering what i had done to have all the kids around me and none around them asking for change!!!
