Hi Sindhu, welcome back !! No it was not in the package for the dance. We went to this Jorhat book fair where we were fortunate to see their traditional dance, hear songs, etc. As for the mask maker, this is another satra and since we collect masks we went to see the collection and had been fortunate once again to meet this gr8 man !! Oh god, could not do mch shopping owing to lack of time and when we checked at the airport their saris cost were sky high but exclusive too. I wanted to by a chunni atleast which I didnt .........now regret it !! Thankfully got some Assam Masala Chai !! I envy you for the dress of course !!
Vidhya, I love travelling and hope to do more if god wills !! Will soon post my next one on Nagaland. Thanks so much for your encouraging fb.
Thanks Sats, will guide you when you make your trip. Those elephants were the best and only entertainment in Manas next to the beautiful river.
Viji ma, am truly happy tonight receiving yor loving feedback and blessings. I wish that god gives me enogh strength to do many more such travels to places of gr8 beauty !!
