And in case you thought we were just hanging around in caves all day, here are a few wonderful scenes from the rest of the day: a groom we saw near Aurangzeb’s tomb who very kindly let us take his photo as he wore his 45 kg outfit, covered in flowers; lunch – another great thali; the lady patrol we saw as we wondered around the bazaar in Aurangabad, and us – we were practising selfies and thought this one more successful than they usually are.
really great photo of the 2 of you – you both look so well and relaxed
And this selfie was, I think, our third attempt not to look weird – M at one point looked at the selfie and checked my face …
Excellent selfie, and you don’t even look tired!!
It’s possible that reading the blog is more tiring than living it I guess?
Bridegroom looks like performance art – has he got any clothes on underneath? Fantastic selfie – much better than any of our efforts.
You know what? It didn’t seem quite the moment – in the mosque with all his friends there – to ask if he was wearing his boxers beneath the flowers..
Lovely photo of you two
Strange things people do to get married!
Indeed! He didn’t look thrilled – there’s a wedding tonight in the hotel where we’re staying, featuring a rather ramshackle Maharaja Band!
All stunning and such interesting images. I just have to go there! The temples are astounding and must say, don’t think that groom looks very happy!
You do need to do this trip – amazing stuff. Groom looks a bit hot and bothered – and he has the rest of the day to get through..
He doesn’t look very happy about the forthcoming nuptials but maybe it’s just the weight of the outfit
Yes, weight and heat ( plus expectations, the ceremony, the brides family, maybe the bride – all adds up I fear)
