funny things...

There are a lot of fun things that we get to see while riding on a rickshaw through town :)

We only have bicycle rickshaws in our city, and it's amazing how many people they can pile onto one rickshaw :) These kids were having fun hanging on the back :)


This picture makes me laugh :) The wife is driving the scooter, and the guy is riding behind her with his Boxer dog!! Hahahaha I don't know why, but I thought it was just hilarious!! OK, so this guy... We were riding on our rickshaw and another rickshaw passed us... the guys on it were holding their medical records from the hospital... (because here, you are in charge of keeping up with your own medical records)... One of the guys was holding his x-ray... it was just floating in the breeze... it just made us laugh, but if you look at a closely and see all the stuff in this poor guys leg, you can see it's no laughing matter :) Here's a close-up .... ouch!!

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...
