Nice weekend in Delhi

Yesterday was lovely great sunshine & blue sky and all that! Went to Lodhi gardens, after a brunch spread out a sheet & with earphones plugged & a nice book had a great time. Indiaworker joined us & we went to Habitat Centre for art exhibition & after some drinks went to Dilli Hat for Kashmiri food, a great day!
Day before yesterday we observed the birthday of Dr. Albert Hofmann whose invention changed my life as well as lives of many people!

Please don't post any more messages like this - I envy you! I love Lodhi Gardens and the Habitat Centre, and here I am freezing in Germany (-10 degrees C today), it's been overcast for days, and my right hand is bandaged after an operation (but I can't stay away from Indiamike). Good day for lying around, reading and watching Mr. + Mrs. Iyer for the third time! What are you doing next weekend - vicarious pleasure is better than not being in Delhi at all

Wow! I was at Lodhi Gardens too on the 13th. And to think I was thinking about Indiamikers, wondering if any others were there.

The weather really was glorious for our last day.
