Day 3 - Still in Srinagar

Last evening, we experienced rains on the Dal lake followed by a brilliant double rainbow, of which you can see one in the picture.









Today we decided to shift to a "normal" hotel (Broadway) from the Houseboat. This is in the other and older part of Srinagar. We visited Jami Masjid (see pic) and Hazratbal shrine and had "Kashmiri lunch" at the famous Mughal Darbar. We are now in the heart of the city (with more armed men around us!). In the evening we went to the famous (or rather infamous!) Lal Chawk. Now we both know the magical properties of zafran and how to assess the quality of walnuts. Evening drinks at the bar (which is rare in this city) UNN DRES! Tomorrow we head to Gulmarg.
