Waking up to flute music

Woke up this morning (who am I kidding, this afternoon) to some soulful flute music. Not sure where it was coming from, is one of the security guards at the South African Embassy next door a budding musician? A reminder that despite New York being the city that never sleeps, Mumbai is the city that is always awake and full of life.

Top three things I've been woken-up by in New York:

1) Garbage trucks' annoying loud back-up beeping
2) Traffic, backed up all the way from the Lincoln tunnel (I used to live on the east side)
3) The Puerto Rican day parade--seriously, that thing is super loud

  2. Ooh, Tapsy, are you waking up to that in Senegal? A little strange. Do you like it? When are you starting your Senegal blog or email updates?

    Iny, we're tots crashing that parade. I bet we can be the loudest people at the parade. Let's try anyway.
