Road Trip #1

I think I'm going to number our road trips because we're going to be taking a lot of them in the next 5 months... Saturday we came to Orlando to visit some of Adam's family :) We had to take a break in the middle of the trip for Aashini to run around a little... but since she's not really running yet, we let her climb around inside the van :)
One of the fun people we're here to visit in Orlando is Adam's brother Sean. He just started middle school and is 11 years old. He's been having fun with Aashini and loves being a Cha-cha (Hindi for paternal uncle). Here he is riding on his Rip-Stick... It's crazy! It has two small inline skate type-wheels - it's sooo hard to balance on but he's awesome at it :)
So here are some fun brother pictures :)
And a fun goofy one....

Adam looks so much like Aashini in that last pic!! Maybe it's cause she makes that face a lot. :)
That first picture is SO CUTE!! I bet lots of road trips get tiring huh? But at least there are fun places to eat along the way, and no scary Tata trucks to contend with. :)

wow those pics were priceless!
Enjoy every minute of your time in the States. It's great Adam gets to hang out with his brother. Living overseas, I don't really miss stuff from America that much but I sure do miss the people and Archie getting to have the experience of being near his grandparents.

What a fun trip! We were just in O-Town too- at Disney! Sean looks so different to me now! He's really grown up!Looks like Aashini is going to be one great driver by the time these 5 months come to a close! Woo Hoo!

Andrea, I had no idea you guys were stateside (maybe cause I don't check your blog enough:( But it's so exciting to have you here even though I probably won't even get to see you! I'm glad you guys had a safe trip... and the service in the States definitely could use some manners!
I loved all your pics!! Welcome Home Shefs:)

So its called a Rip-stick, huh? Those things are SOOO popular in our city right now. But we just call it the cool skateboard thing for lack of knowing any better!! Looks like you guys are having 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!

MasterChef Australia!!!

MasterChef Australia is a great show!  When it's on, we get it 5 days a week.  There are TONS of episodes.  The thing that makes it really cool is that the judges and contestants are all so nice!  The contestants don't stab each other in the back and they even help each other!   Anyway, the other night (a couple of weeks ago) some friends of ours were in town and wanted to go to Chili's, so we went over to the mall to eat :)  When we got there we saw that the bookstore had the Judges (and very famous chefs/restaurant owners) inside signing cookbooks!    When we got inside, they had just closed off the line, so we weren't allowed to go through the line and get them to sign a cookbook or get a pic with them :(    So... we stood as close as we could and took pics :) haha!  (and I didn't have my camera, only my phone to take pics)... Here's Gary...    Here's George with my friend Amy :)  And my at...

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!!
