Oh my, I remember reading this before. This time through I looked at the pictures more closely. They remind me of the elaborate park the British built in Bangalore. I was there in spring. They had originally cleared the park of all visitors so that we wouldn't be approached. "Nonsense. It's now the peoples park. We're all visitors," I said.

I enjoyed meeting the people as much as the tour we were given of the park, in spring.

Very nice and refreshing article.

Thank you.
