Shopping for marriage gifts we reached the stage typified by the Ad "shop till you drop".
We noticed this Tea Vendor - our saviour. Seeing the hygienic throw away earthenware pots and being aware that boiling hot tea will not give us a "runny tummy", we stopped by for a refreshing cuppa. That was the best tea we had, and guess the cost 8 US Cents (INR 5). So we had two cuppas each. Even a 5-star hotel or restaurant wouldn't beat this tea. See the street shots here:- https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3p13tahx90rfrnv/AADWbI01ez5AK8q41fKIJ4EXa?dl=0 It was then that I decided to take out the old Canon S90 for a picture of the Tea Vendor. Note: Left my pro gear home as there would be Pro Photographers and Videographers at the wedding. Comments welcome. Regards. PS: See his frugal setup as he sits on a bench 2 x 3 feet wide by the roadside with the electric pole to hang other wares. See also the ancient kerosene stove. But he does an awesome job day in day out - come rain or sunshine. And the sad part in our country is he remains poor - as my daughter says "Papa don't drive down street vendors on price, as they will never be rich to open a shop in a mall or elsewhere". -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
