Day Ten

Today we decided to visit the Mani Bhavan Gandhi Museum in Mumbai to see where Gandhi lived. While we were there, we saw where Gandhi was arrested and even got to see Gandhi's room! We also got to see Gandhi's old spinning wheel, which we were told that in many ways it symbolized the struggle for independence, and now appears on the Indian flag. Inside the museum, we got to see Inside the library of Gandhi-related works. The library had about 50,000 books and periodicals, photographs, posters, slogans, and other items that document and explain Gandhi's life. One of the awesome things about visiting this museum is that it was completely free, the only expense was traveling to see it. Tomorrow we fly to Jaipur to continue our fun activities.
