D-962 NFC, 3/4 Floor Apartment

Here's some of the photos of the house we looked at for our cousin-brother and his family to possibly live in when they come to India.

Living RoomDining Room
Kitchen (with small stove, refrigerator, and water purifier)
Family Room/Sitting Room
View from the back on one of the most beautiful parks in the area. I think you'll have to walk around to enter from the gate on the right side, but it will be very close.
One of the bedrooms. There are three big bedrooms, each with attached bathrooms. There's also a half bath near the terrace.Here's the realtor (agent) Osama on the terrace. There were beautiful potted plants everywhere and marble table for serving food for parties!
Here's the view from the front of the house of the Mata Ki Mandir Temple. It may get a little loud sometimes to be so close, but you'll get a bird's eye view of all that goes on there.
Here's the street in front of the house (same view as above, just the street below). It's usually a lot more busy than this. Again, you'll get a nice view of all the commerce and people in the neighborhood, but it won't be all that quiet with all the cars and people using the road.
View from the entrance of the apartment. That's the dining/living room on the right and Russell is walking toward the family room/bedroom area. If you walked the opposite direction you'd get to the half bath and terraces. There's two levels of terraces. The second on is where the two servant's quarters are and a giant generator.

Qutb Minar with Our LDS Pals

These days there are more American/Canadian Mormons in Delhi than we ever dreamed we'd have. There's so many of us we had to start a yahoogroup to make sure we all got the message when we do things together. We've been doing girls' nights and playdates and dinners. I find it so comforting to have so many people like me around to hang out with. It's like chocolate and ice cream. Yum.

So here we are on a playdate to the Qutb Minar. A kid paradise. Things to climb everywhere.

(L to R) Chase Jordan, Russell, Owen Reynolds, & The Smiths: Hannah, Becca, Mary, Naomi, Aaron, Lizzie, Ben Russell says, "Chase is older and smarter, but I'm faster." I'm never quite sure how to respond to this, but I was happy to notice in this picture that they're holding hands while running. Maybe Russell's decided they can both be smart and fast.
Bryce, Russell, Chase, Owen & Graham
Chase Jordan, Russell's best friend. We'll miss them so much when they leave in a few weeks, but we're glad that they will be in Utah since we always go there.
