A day in the life of Josiah



So instead of writing about what a typical day is like for me, I thought why not take a craptonne of pictures instead?! After all, they say a picture is worth a thousand words!


Up at 6:30am! I start the day with a cup of strong coffee in my favourite mug which I never wash, as you can see. 
I like to do my part for conserving water


Essential working equipment - biscuits, coffee and a computer!


With all the construction work going on outside I'm not sure how she stays asleep!
Maybe she pretends to be sleeping whenever I walk in so she doesn't have to get up...

Just hanging up the washing, you know, in our hallway. 

Jen's off to go exploring on her own...
hmm must be coffee time again yes?
Yes!!
then more work ...... zzzzz....
Lunch Time!! Only $4 for the BEST woodfire pizza...With free garlic bread and drink....Delivered.
Beat that Dominos Australia! 
Jen's back! A coffee for her and Me



Finished work for the day! Time to go out and explore the markets!
This is a picture of our street.
 Inspite of all the traffic you can see, it's actually considered a quiet suburban road!

A hit and run! This guy was pushing his vegetable cart along our road and got clipped by another vehicle. I helped by holding onto the cart so it didn't roll away down the street while he grabbed his vegetables off the dirty ground.
I hope whoever buys the spinach gives it a good wash before eating them!



Hold on tight, it's dodgem rickshaws 

3 near misses later (no exaggeration there) and we finally make it to our destination.
Only 11 Rupees (20 cents)!

The markets are always so colourful! 



This game is what I like to call - where's Jen?
Or as Jen likes to call it - 'how much stuff can you fit into a shop?!'

A vegetarian Zombie's feast - graaaaains

Pasta, anyone?

Getting lost in the markets...




a CHICKOO!

Jen's comment: it's like a rainbow in a shop :D


Walking down to Carter Road, we pass one of the slums of Mumbai...

Before heading home we stopped in at my favourite yoghurt store for some Berry Frozen Yoghurt - my current obsession!




Another crazy ride back


Back home! This is our security guard. He likes to talk to us in Hindi, but since  we can't really understand him, we just nod and smile and say Thank You. He probably thinks we're idiots.

It's 9pm - the perfect time for making strawberry walnut cheesecake!

Jen volunteered to do the washing up!

How do you finish off a great night? By chilling out with some ZOMBIES!
