Bangalore






Just a few shots to test out the blogger picture upload facility - its a bit fercoctah, but works if tweaked (hard)

Here we have, L to R two images of the interior of the Taj mahal hotel in Bombay, built by the Tata family (who seem to own most of the industries in India) in 1903, I think for the visit of the Prince of Wales. Any, fabulous hotel with lovely antiques, wrought iron ceiling mouldings, stained glass etc. Next is the Gateway to India, taken from the Hotel. This was built for the arrival of GeorgeV and Queen Mary not long after the hotel was opened. The last picture is ofthe garden/pool area taken from my room.

OK, lets see if it worked....publishing, uploading...........
