| Title: | Getting to Know Gujarat, India |
| Starting Point: | Ahmedabad, Gujarat State, India |
| Artist: | Geeta Sadashivan |
| From: | Seattle, WA |
| Favorite Place: | any place that is green and wild |
| Footnote: | The top border on my map, with the long "He. .. e. . .y" refers to the extended note that is sung at the beginning of many Gujarati folksongs (similar to yodeling.) The lower border consists of mini-versions of "rangoli" -- a design made of colored sand that is drawn on the ground before the front door of the home by Gujarati women, to welcome guests. |
