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 :)

Aww...a foot massage sounds great!! I love it that Aashini likes to sleep on the floor of the plane. What a laidback kid. :)

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 :)

yeah I'm pretty sure the massage people here are NOT that competent. :)

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!!

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!!

Protesting

There's some political stuff going on in our city (and now the country) right now. People are peacefully fighting against corruption. It's been very interesting to follow. 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!

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!
