walking

With my energy levles back up I have spent the day walking through
the old city. No tourists in site,(all day,) as I walked through the old
markets and down to the 14 century mosques. Yes folks It was just me as I walked
round one of Kashmirs bigest mosques. The old building is held up
by some one hundred tree trunks that have been hand carved and brought here, each from
one single tree. So cool in there and full of belief and use.
Strange to walk over where millions of folk congregate to worship.
Then off to a few more tombs and mosques before a quick ride to the
Silk emporium un by the government. The interesting thing was, apart for the
spinning jennies and the ancient machines clattering away,
I had to walk through a field full of full grown marijuana plants.
In a government store.
Ohhhh India how different you are.

Well I may try and get an update out later in the day
but I am a way from the town. I am off to watch eagles
and meditate for a while.

let me know how you are.

Namaste
