HUMAYUN'S TOMB, NIZAMUDDIN, DELHI
Three weeks passed in Srinagar while city residents, the area gardens, and myself, all emerged from winter's chill to revel in the greener, longer, sunny days of spring. Preparedness for the approaching summer tourist season became the order of each day, stirring somnambulant houseboat staffs to scrubbing planks and lathering the decorative work with fresh coats of paint.
My daily routine of talking walks and photographs completely overtook my ambition to wander India; it was an opportunity to watch spring come alive in Srinagar, as I had wanted since first leaving Kashmir in 2008. To this I added a sturdy Indian bicycle, and constantly traversed Srinagar, spending also many days going around the city lakes and to the many Mughal gardens, just then coming into bloom.
