#Ganpati 2016 – Come Along

I was awaiting for Gannu Bappa to arrive and I thought, to take you all through this trip. Come Along with me for Darshan..

I got a chance to visit Surat, so I am sharing those pics as well. One thing I noticed is that with the bigger Murti I saw a lot of small Murtis. It was always more than 1 at many places.

At Surat Station: Loved the Golden work

  1. Ganpati is the most vivacious festival in Maharashtra and while I never experienced it in North India growing up, over the years I have become very fond of this. I like the way you have covered the spirit of this festival.
