Dirty and Beauty

Two things about India...Dirty and Beautiful.

Some parts are absolutely filthy. Garbage everywhere!

It lines the streets and curbs.

They need street sweepers...

Everything looks so run-down

Those little tin shacks...yes...those are homes and little businesses.

And that is garbage on the roofs.

I know this picture is a little blurry but you get the "picture"

These are more homes...sorry they're not in focus...

Then there are beautiful country-sides

And you'll pass beautiful gardens with lush green grass, trees, and flowers

(Just so you know...we never just went sight-seeing and there were never any photo stops...so we were usually trying to take pictures out of the bus window as we sped on by!)

And when we arrived at a business center...this was the view

Once the fog lifted...it was even more gorgeous!

Beautiful waterfalls

Breathtaking views

And for someone who's afraid of heights...

...a little extra security. :)

It was such an amazing trip in so many ways.

For some reason...

the beautiful scenery was not something I expected.

So, it was a real blessing for me. 

Reminded me of Hawaii.

I'm always amazed at God's beauty!
