Our first day in the city was Republic Day , January 26th, the date that India celebrates the adoption of the Constitution of India. We spent the morning watching the Delhi parade on television. I am not keen on parades myself, but the parade was stunning to watch. One of the highlights was watching the president of India, Pratibha Devisingh Patil, hold a salute to the Indian armed forces for nearly fifteen minutes as they paraded by. How did she manage to keep her arm elevated for so long without so much as twitching a muscle? Puppet string? A prosthetic limb? Point is, inhuman strength!
