Just went through the pictures. There are so many wonderful images from the firewood seller to the sugar cane juice machine to the road-side shave to the wonderful stained glass inside of St John to Kolkata's delightfully quaint trams!
Thank you so much!
I am guessing the thank you should be directed to everyone in this image http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikimedia_Photowalk_-_Kolkata_2011-12... (and the photographer who took it!) You all look like you had a wonderful time!
There's something cooking in the West Bengal community and it tastes sweet as sandesh!
