Delhi Visit . . . Day 2

Day 2 of our visit to Delhi was fully reserved for a trip to the Delhi Zoo. It was quite a contrast compared to the first day, when we were visiting old railway wagons and engines at the Rail Museum.

This battery operated vehicle is a blessing. Otherwise, one would end up walking quite a long.

The Gallery, Rail Museum, Delhi

Snaps from the gallery of the train museum. The kids enjoyed this much more than the bigger and real life exhibits outside.

Skull of an elephant which was hit by a train . . . In fact, the train also got derailed.














A must visit for kids if you are passing through Delhi . . .

Train Museum

Few snaps from the train museum. I could not take many as children were quite happy with the few engines we saw at the entrance of the museum. And we were also so tired.

Delhi Visit . . . Day 1

Over the last month, we got the opportunity to plan out a vacation starting today. We are on our way to Kerala via Delhi. I had been planning to take out the family in Delhi. We had quite a lot of discussion on where to visit. 

The vote for Day 1 fell for the Train Museum from Shalom and Charis (Chesed is yet to start making choices) and for us parents, we decided on a second visit to the second hand books available in Daryaganj on Sundays. 

Snaps taken during the visit. 

Shalom is quite excited on seeing the first exhibit

Today, the plan is to visit the Delhi Zoo and of course a peep into our Central Office. The kids always keep on asking about the Central Office where I go to once a while.
