THAILAND!!

We made it to Thailand!! Aashini did great on the flights! We got the bulkhead for them, so Aashini slept on the floor in front of us (her preferred place) :)
I've gotten a couple foot massages since being here - it's been great!!! Much needed!! (this picture makes me laugh :) The ladies beside us had some sort of silly putty stuff on their faces!!)
Aashini is loving the public transportation and having blast!!
She's loving her class too - she's exausted every day after a day of playing ;) I'll post more pictures soon :)

man, when I was in china and pregnant, NO ONE would massage me for fear of inducing labor. It's one of those things I was REALLY looking forward to about Asia, and I didn't get it. :( How did you convince them??

You reminded me I have a massage gift card right now, and I should schedule a pregnancy massage this week :)

You just tell the people that you are pregnant and they dont' mess with the pressure points that could induce labor - they know what they're doing. I also know the points in case they forget or don't know what they're doing :)

Aw man it looks like a blast! The group that is there is from my MOPS church- its such a small world. I can't believe A slept on the floor- but hey however she'll sleep right? Next time you go you'll have TWO babies!!!

I really don't want to say this because it's so hackneyed, but Double-A looks so adorably cute.

The eyes are so good to look at... I dunno why all orientals, aryans & dravidians usually have dark eyes...

Got any close close-ups?

Yeah, the Chinese are not into massages for pregnant women. Thai women don't seem to mind, but I also read that in the 3rd trimester you should avoid foot massages not because of inducing labor because it can cause problems with varicose veins in your legs. Since my mom and sister have trouble with them, I wasn't taking any chances!! I waited until post-delivery!

I'm so jealous you're in Thailand!!

Dusshera 2012

This year, our neighborhood was quite active for Dusshera.  At one end of our street, one of the major political parties here, set up a Dusshera celebration.   Here are some guys putting the effigies together and filling it full of fireworks! They had quite the political statement for their celebration.  (Basically that expensive water, fuel, electricity, diesel, gas, etc and FDI (bringing in foreign companies like Wal-Mart) are like Raverna (the demon god)... and are the evils of today....)  Here's their set-up at the end of our street.... you can't see it very well, but they had all three effigies there that they burned....  They burned VERY quickly at this one... So quickly that by the time I pulled out my camera, it was already on the ground!!  Our street looked like those CNN videos of rioting cities :) haha!!  There was burning stuff all over the street :)  Many people will get a piece of the leftover wood/bamboo...

Funny Things 2 - American Fair Edition

We just got back from Roadtrip #8 in Macon, GA. It was an awesome trip!! So, before we head out on the next trip, we went to the North Florida Fair! The fair is always famous for it's fried foods... they fried everything!!... They had fried/breaded zucchini, Mushrooms, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Onions, green tomatoes, okra, pickles, etc :) I had a lot of it too - YUM! Now, I'd heard of fried Snickers & twinkies (which they had) but they also had FRIED OREOS & PEANUTBUTTER CUPS :) The fair was cool. They had a shark show and a sea lion show... but our favorite was the pig races :) haha!!! It was hilarious!! Aashini was close up to the race until the pigs came - then she crawled up into Adam's lap really fast :) (as seen below) :) Pig races! haha! Cracks me up!

In Thailand!

We flew to Bangkok, Thailand today! The flight went well :) Aashini cried a little, but did awesome! We got the bulkhead seat and they even had an extra seat next to us! Aashini really only set in it for a pic or two, but it was fun anyway :) You can see the Buddhist monk in red behind Aashini. The guy that set next to us was a Monk also, he was actually the translator for the Dalai Lama ! Cool hunh? It was funny because he was typing on his laptop the whole flight (and Aashini was grabbing at his robe - haha!) This picture below cracked me up so I had to post it :) When we got here we had to go get a few things at the grocery store :) Aashini went to her first grocery store in the Middle East, but this was her first time getting to ride in a cart!!! She LOVED it!! She was swining her legs, babbling up a storm and looking at everything! Thai people LOVE babies!!! She got a lot of attention today! I have a feeling she's going to get a lot of attention the next coupl...
