To the market

In Hyderabad we visit the famous bazar. Here many people come shop for their marital preparations. Hyderabad is very well known for their pearl jewelry and gorgeous fabrics, most of them with a lot of golden embroidery. You can imagine how shiny an Indian bride and groom will look, like a fairy tale.
We realise we came to the right place. I brought my multi-usage pareo, but Harry needs a cloth to use as a blanket when we take the night train. So we pick one of the many stores, take off our slippers en sit on the white cushioned floor. Within no time there is a spread of many colored and decorated sarees in front of us and the shop keepers are still taking out more varieties out of all the piles along the walls. It's too much to choose from. But a beautifully madras woven dark blue and yellow saree becomes our favorite. And because it is a little shorter than the usual 6 meters we get it for a very good price. They still try to show and sell us some elaborately embroidered silk sarees, but they are not much to our taste.
I guess there is no Indian flavoured marriage coming up...
