We're Home!

We're back home from Bangkok! I had a couple of pics left that I thought needed posting... so here they go... :)
This is a pic of me on a motorcycle taxi... It is a good walk from the guesthouse to the SkyTrain station... so to save my feet, we took these sometimes.... I know what some of you (mom) are thinking... "You're pregnant and riding on the back of a motorcycle!!!" - but don't worry mom, it was a very short distance via taxi, we went slow and were only on small back roads :) (Oh, and I sat the "proper" side-saddle style... so easy to get off if I needed to :) One night we were in the mall and they had some sort of "Save the Earth" thing going on. They had plants, ponds, birds, butterflies and all sorts of other things on display, it was cool! While we were there, the "President of Bangkok" and his entourage were there. So I got a pic :)

To Andrea's Mom:
The road she rode on is actually a nice quiet street...and a helmet would have been borrowed (and therefore stinky inside from other people's head sweat) AND it would have thrown her off-balance while sitting side-saddle with a prego belly. She really does make good choices!

That last pic is awesome! You guys have way too many random encounters with celebrities! How fun!

Comic Con 2013

 Comic Con 2013 just ended.  It was a fun one this year.  This was the 3rd Annual Comic Con here.  We've been to it all 3 years.  It's getting bigger each year!  I think they grew out of their venue this year...it was soooo crowded!  Here's me imitating "Superkudi" :)  Aashini and me :)  For the Love of Comics...  Some guys that were dressed up... the guy on the left isn't in his full attire... He won the CosPlay contest that day... he won a trip to Dubai to their Comic Con!!  This was my favorite costume of the day... Nyan Cat :)  There were lots of people there!  Me and the girls on the 2nd day :)  I had to have at least one jumping picture :) Our friend Ford made a video of the first day... check it out!

Cooking!

Cooking is sooo much harder here. THis is how you "puree" vegetables when you don't have a blender or food processor (or power). Some people have those things, but most people don't. This is my friend Gita. She's mashing up some onions. It's a marble slab that's not polished and they use a big rounded rock and just roll/mash! It's cool!!

Weekend Getaway!!

 During the Diwali holidays, the kiddos had off almost a week of school.  So, us and some of our friends went on a getaway!  We went just a little outside of the city to another state and stayed at a fun resort.   Look at the view from our room!  Fun hunh?  Aashini and Diya got to play a lot with their buddies Sanjana and Sandeep :)  The kiddos had a great time on the outside play area :)  The boys spent most of their time playing sports! haha!  They played Badminton (pictured below), Tennis, Water Polo and Cricket at any chance they got! :)  They played ALL day long! haha!  The hotel also had an indoor play area.  They kids had a lot of fun at that one too :)  It had a crazy slide that was super steep and fast!  They usually ended up sliding across the floor  a few feet after they slid off :) haha!  We all tried the slide too :) haha!  There were fountains and water ever...
