Few More Random pics--

Okay, test 1 worked, lets see if I can't throw another few pics up here....

but while I'm waiting for them to upload, let me tell you about the market I went to in Aurungabad. Syed, my driver that, day asked me if I wanted to go to the animal market...i was a little hesitant at first, but said "yeah, lets go." I have to say, it was AMAZING! Exactly what you would expect, right....One section is all livestock. Sheep, cows, buffalo, goats, Yaks....then it spills over into a fish market, and hopefully there will be a few pics on here from the fish section. People have their product out there and you come buy and pick out however much it is you want. They use hand scales to weigh out your fish, crabs, lobster, prawn eels...whatever you need....from there it goes into a vegetable market, then a special sugar section, which then leads into the spice section...and finally the "goods" market where you can get anything from pots and pans to car parts.

I got this one pic I LOVE of a guy scaling fish, hes looking up, smiling, and there are scales flying everywhere. We'll see if the picture makes it up on this post.

One of the guys who was selling buffalo was telling me about how sometimes the baby calf will die (it happens all the time he says) and subsequently either the mothers milk goes bad, or she stops making it all together...so what they do is skin the calf and stuff it with straw and dirt and lay it out in front of the mom to trick it into thinking she still had a calf...and hence keeps giving good milk.

u learn something new everyday



argh!!! so the pics won't upload now...don't know why....but I'll try again later
