Shopping at Delhi's Dilli-Haat

This enterprising man is from Pondicherry, the former French colony on the east coast of India and he makes earrings, pedants and goodness knows what else from coconut shells and they are are really nicely made in different colours (depending on the age of the coconut). We bought some and now my daughter Serena has placed a request with her Aunty Venita to bring her anchor shaped earrings and a pendant, because that is the "in" thing...the anchors that is. I was really impressed with his workmanship.


Mr. Musicman here will sell you one of these lovely one stringed instruments with a bow. He can produce beautiful melodies but you will never be able to replicate them.....but it's still fun to think you can buy one and do what he does.


Pearls of wisdom: When shopping for little things...just relax and enjoy the experience.
