Banana Wallah!!!

This is our Banana Wallah. He's the guy that comes by our house selling banans :) He's really cool! One day, a whole bunch of monkeys came to his cart and started stealing his bananas!! He started throwing bricks at them - it was awesome!!
Here he is with his banana cart. The bananas are covered up because it is really hot outside and he doesn't want them to ripen too early :)


When we got bananas yesterday, he gave us this special banana :) It's a double-decker banana :) Hahaha :) It's banana twins!! OK, I thought it was funny :)

Maybe I'm looking at your picture wrong, but is that street paved, clean, and has right angles? Wow! Rocksville, South Asia seems like a planned city! :)

haha :) No, not paved... only hard-packed dirt! And it's only clean b/c the whole city was closed that day... Looks can be deceiving :) haha :)

Cooking!

Tonight there was some protesting in our neighborhood. Here are some more protesting pictures. There will probably be more protesting to come... we'll see what happens!

Jaya's Engagement!

My good friend Jaya (Mayank's sister that lives in M-town) - just got engaged!  On Sunday, I took the trip to M-town to go to her Engagement Ceremony (or Ring Ceremony).  It was a lot of fun :)!   First Stop - Beauty Parlor!  We walked a little ways down the street to a lady's house.  The beauty parlor was in one of the rooms in her house.  Jaya had already been to her house that morning to get her hair done, but now it was time for the makeup.  This beauty parlor was interesting because it only had 2 light bulbs in the whole room (and they were the energy saver kind that were dimmer than the regular ones), so it wasn't that bright inside the room.   Here's a pic of Jaya in the chair getting her makeup done.   Notice that her hair is crimped.  They use the crimper on people's hair when it's a special occasion - awesome!!! They put a  bindi  on her head and then the lady painted more and made it super fancy. Here's the finished product (after 1.5 hours)!  She...
