To see a world in a grain of sand, And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour. William Blake, from "Auguries of Innocence"

Rickshaws of a Different Color

Dear Daughter,

Papa was in Kerala the other day, which is the state next to Tamil Nadu. In India, each of the states have different colored rickshaws. If you remember, the pictures I sent of ones in Tamil Nadu, they are mostly yellow. In Kerala, they are mostly black like the ones below. Right now, I am in Uttar Pradesh and the rickshaws here are green and yellow. So, if you are ever lost, just check to see what color the rickshaws are!

I Love You,

Papa

  1. What a way to recognize the states of your country.
    One more factor can be, how rude or rowdy the driver can be.
    For example the rickshaw drivers are very polite and tender the exact change in Mumbai.
    In Pune its the opposite.
    In Belgium I did not see any Rickshaws but the people in Europe are generally very helpful.
