This is a salt farm. The white stuff you see is salt that came from the ocean. The picture above is a town we went to today, we delivered rice to people in the slum areas. It was a good day.

The people from India are very friendly. Here are locals that I work with and their family. They love having us come by for a visit.

There are many Hindu Temples in Mumbai. Usually around parks or places where people gather. There they can park their cow then stand in line to give homage. After they're done they ring one of the many bells.

Vendors push their carts around selling their packages of many bright colors of dye. They mix the dye with water and load it into their water guns or whatever they can use to paint their friends or innocent bystanders. The kids have fun painting themselves and everyone around them.


March 11th is holy day in India. Family and friends get together and celebrate with spraying each other with water and various colors of dye. Don't get to close! Everyone is having a good time.

In the city of Mumbai is a park called the Kanheri Caves. The Buddist monks carved temples and living quarters in the rocks. The name Kanheri is originated from the Sanskrit word Krishnagiri. Krishna stands for black mountain

All over town the streets have these slum shanties. The shanties are their place of business. They sell everything from food to articles for your home. At night it is also their home.

Here is a picture of my happy rickshaw driver. He seemed to like his picture taken, or it may have been the ten rupee tip I gave him. Its not very hard to catch one. There are millions of these things all over town.

Parks



In Mumbai they have many large parks in the middle of the street roundabouts. Lots of trees and shrubs. The parks are always very busy. Very crowded in the evenings and weekends
