Flying across America

 Paul wearing the red anchor shirt -  I am thinking this might be on their way to Chicago in this photo becasue of this photo of Paul arriving in Chicago in 1965.

Arriving at Midway

 

August 20, 1965 -  The Beatles arrive in Chicago.   Obviously, no one informed Paul that it was "wear your striped shirt" day and Paul went for the red version of the famous Anchor shirt.  

Late night at a hotel in Toronto

 

August 17 (or maybe even early on August 18), 1965 in Toronto.  

The Beatles go to Rikhi Ram

The Beatles had been listening to Indian music during the 1966 world tour quite often.   People that were around them recall hearing Indian music being played in the hotel rooms and on the yacht in Manila.    The Beatles newest album that hadn't been released but had been recorded had an Indian song on it.   And so it wasn't shocking that the Beatles, especially George Harrison, wanted to go to to the premiere Indian music store in India, Rikhi Ram.     All four Beatles went to the store (including Ringo, who some people claim wasn't there) and tested out the instruments.   George had a sitar lesson while he was there.   A lot of photographs of the Beatles at the Rikhi Ram store were taken, including some nice ones of the guys with people at the store.

Ringo's birthday in India

The Beatles spent Ringo's birthday sightseeing in India.   Beatlemania was in full force, but it must have been mild enough for them to get out and look around, as the photos that they took show.
