On the Road

goats 

A pause for goats crossing the road. At least they're moving to get out of the way. Everyone share the road, with amazingly few conflicts or accidents, apparently. Day said she once witnessed a whole busload of people loudly berate a hapless driver who had accidently nipped the paw of a dog laying in the road.

 rockpile

Road repair crew. To make gravel, rocks are broken up after being dumped by...

 truck

...a truck like this. Then a guy with a hose and a tank truck sprays bitumnous....

 raod repair

...and a basket-brigade of workers hand carry and spread the hand-made gravel. A steam roller finishes the job.

 rickshaw

A well-kept bicycle rickshaw. Someday, someone will introduce multiple gears to India, and the knees of rickshaw drivers will be forever improved.

 bike shop

A roadside bike shop

 group

On a walk, we happened upon a group of young guys, who were very keen on having their picture taken with Day, and oh allright the father too.
