Gandhi's Death

Today we ventured to the home where Ghandi last resided in Delhi.

We were told the story (that I already knew) about his death.

Here goes. He was leaving his house to go to prayer and on the way there were always several people waiting to greet him. He went up to all of them to greet them and on his final day, one person had his hands folded together and people do (like you are praying) when giving the Indian greeting of "Namaste". Folded between his hands was a pistol. Supposedly he cried out "Oh Lord Oh Lord" two or three times. This was Gandhi's death.

Here are his footsteps leading to his prayer spot, where he was assasinated before he reached there.

And here is the room where he spent his final days. Supposedly still in tact.

More to come, unfortunately Melissa and I are waaaaaay far away from our "home" right now and have to get ourselves back by our "curfew" (lol) of 11:00. So will write more tomorrow! Hope you all are well.

P.S. I am really hot and tired and am a little fearful this post didn't entirely make sense or was that clear, sorry if it that was the case.

Love, Janelle
