The dog food bag, that was almost empty, was shaking from something furious, but before I got the camera to tape it, it had bitten a hole right through and run off.
You should have seen Angel with her nose down the bag smelling the mouse.

The monster in the bag
Yesterday morning at 5 we heard this irritating whining from the kitchen.
The dog food bag, that was almost empty, was shaking from something furious, but before I got the camera to tape it, it had bitten a hole right through and run off.

Sofas
I think we finally are ready with the sofa parts in the café.
Here they have managed not to center the plug. So annoying.

The Hanuman temple
Leya and I are just outside the Hanuman mouth.
A super glittery room in the temple.
Of course people wanted to have their photo taken with Leya even in the temple.
Getting a blessing in the Sai Baba room.

Unwanted neighbours
These monkeys are disturbing our upstairs neighbour Gaby.
One monkey opened the tap on Gaby's terrass and started to wash her arm pits while her monkey kids were watching.

Marble
An offspring of the original builders of Taj Mahal is showing how the carving in the marble is done.
To see the pattern he is making, he is covering the surface with the red henna colour.
Stones to be placed piece by piece on the plate he is making.

Taj Mahal
Taj Mahal in it's all glory.
Taj Mahal was built by a mogul prince to bury his beloved wife who died from giving birth to 14 children.
Every friday the Taj Mahal is closed for reparation. It took 22 years and 20 000 people to build and still there are relatives living in the area.
So every friday they repair the buildings and change this water that use to be clear and shows a mirror picture of Taj Mahal.
We were there a thursday so the water was dirty.
The minaret towers are built so they lean outwards so they will not fall into the main building if there is an earthquake.
All factories in the area are closed down due to pollution, to keep this new listed sight of world of wonders kept for years to come.
An amazed trio.

The first day
Since we landed in Delhi at 3 am, we went to sleep at 6 am in our flat and woke up at 2 pm. Talk about a confusing day.
We went to Master ji since my mum needs dresses for the wedding she and dad are attending in Madurai, in the south of India.
My mum is cleaning our home her first day in Delhi. We tried to stop her, but she was as stubborn as only a redhead can be.

Back to India
My mother-in-law, my mum, Leya and I before we enter the security check point at Arlanda, Stockholm.
I really like the Babushkas. A very special Russian thing.
Finally in India. The new built airport is so fresh and nice.

Last shopping
Did I tell you I love IKEA? Well, today I did the last shopping for this trip for the café.
Many colourful things, but Swedish style!

Greta
Today I went to visit my darling Greta.
Greta and her late husband Sven had a summer house close to us during my childhood and they took care of us a lot when mum and dad was working long hours at the farm.
Greta is a very special lady and I've learned a lot from her. She is very controversial for her generation.
A late friend of Greta had this painting made in the 90's. It's the Pearly gate and to the right, closest to the gate is Greta and her friend John is next in line.
Since he knows her and her ways he brought a stool because he knew it would take some time for Greta to talk her way in.
Very humorous for us who knew/know them both.

Slippers
In Leya's Café it's shoes off!
You are most welcome to borrow our slippers. We start with some pairs from IKEA, but soon I'd like to offer my own designed slippers made from vintage saris.

Spring cleaning
Time for some spring cleaning.
Dad's old Ford is going in the garage and it hasn't been used for a car in more than 20 years, so there are things to throw or at least move.
What to keep and what to throw? That is the eternal question.

Then they ran off and started to play.
