A Rest Day

Overnight we got 2 inches of snow. It's cold and windy - I can't keep up with the driveway, from the blowing snow, so I've given up. It's nasty outside, but surprisingly, our local school district was one of the few that remained open. As you can guess, the kids assumed all night long that they would be out sledding today....

The arctic days, like today, make me wish we were back in Delhi. The first week in India was warm and sunny... but,

One day it did get a little overcast. The National Rail Museum is not far from the embassy compound and just a short walk. Joshua loves all things transportation. Most of the trains were outdoors. Indoors there were model trains and train parts. One train was cut in half so you could see the working guts... which there aren't many .
Like many of the monuments around Delhi, there were several groups of school kids touring and taking rides on a small scale train around the grounds. We passed on the ride; once one group of kids got off, the next group filled it to capacity. It was funny to watch the kids ride by, excitedly sticking their heads and arms out the side of the passenger cars. It looked like they were having lots of fun.





On the way home it started to sprinkle. Which was a probably a good thing; We had basically toured a lot of Delhi over the past week, tomorrow would be Thanksgiving, and I think everyone needed to rest......
