Kite gang members, Chowpatty Beach.

"Would you like to come up to the terrace?" Ah, the invitation we were hoping for!

Bel puri, a wonderful sort of mixture of nuts and other crunchies, veggies and sauce.

Kite in hand with much advice – "no, no, not too tight – looser, looser."

Kite-eating tree and rooftop kite flier in a less upscale neighborhood.

Kite salvage in the holy pool at Banganga. If a kite takes a holy dip, is it blessed too?
