    Back on topic, all you need now is a kilt that blends with her saris..
    Sightseeing will be on Saturday. We were going to go out on Sun, but there was so much smoke hanging around from all the Diwali fireworks, the view from Golconda wouldn't have been that good.

    I felt obligated to buy a couple of kurtas to wear when my wife dons her saris. Fortunately, I just found out we have a company function to attend Saturday night, so they won't gather dust.

    Ah Yes, Diwali! What a great festival in Hyderabad. The entire city lights up for three straight nights with massive fireworks. The smell of gunpowder over-whelming the city. It was one of my favorite festivals.

    If your interested in what some of the sites are, check out my photo album here...

    One other thing with the Kurtas, if you get them cut right they work as wonderful kilt shirts... I had several made while I was there that are cut about 3 inches above the knee.... They work wonderfully!
