Today I had a chance to sleep in a bit before heading out to the shops. Anand is in need of some traditional Indian clothing to wear on Friday and we’re going to Shopper’s stop and Fabindia before heading to work so he can select something to wear. In Shopper’s Stop, I pointed out the silk suit I’d like to pick up for Drew and he liked it so much that he’s considering purchasing one for himself!

See Drew – I do have good taste in mens clothing ;P

It must be something in the male genes, because Anand shops like Drew. In, wander around, back out – browsing completed in less than 5 minutes!

While I’m not much of a big shopper back home, I have been honing up my window shopping skills here in India. Things are so interesting to see and touch that it’s hard to walk away from the shops without taking a few minutes to wander around in most of them.

Somewhere along the way from the shops to work, we developed a flat tire. Anand and I piled out of the car and our driver got busy pulling out and setting up the spare. While he was changing the tire, we wandered the sidewalk and took a peek into the local stores. Directly in front of where we stopped was a small hut where hand made sandals were being stitched together. It was too hot to consider trying on footware, so I’ve made a mental note to go shoe shopping another day.
