Peacock!

When we went to Preeti's wedding a few weeks ago, I had to leave the wedding at one point because Diya was crying. When I was walking around with her we saw a ton of peacocks! There were at least 10!! They were all walking around on the top of the buildings. I think they were all females except this one male and he was showing off his feathers!
I've seen peacocks before, but I don't think I had ever seen a peacock from behind like this before! It looks cool!

Cool! When we would take our evening walks, we saw and heard a ton of peacocks, but they were always females so we never saw the pretty feathers like that. That's a cool picture!
Fun! When we went to the KL bird park they had peacocks in one section...I had never seen the back side either and at first thought it was some other type of bird. SOOO cool!

I didn't even read aloud what you said about the peacock but Shanti said the exact same thing about the back of the peacock: "It looks cool." :)

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.

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 - Random :)

Here's a few random funny things ;) One thing that drives a lot of people crazy is honking! There are things that drive me crazy (like people urinating on the sidewalks - yuck!) but thankfully honking is not one of them because we hear it pretty much 24/7. We saw this poster the other day (below) and thought it was funny... BUT not as funny as the Hindi poster. The Hindi poster pretty much said that 'Honking is bad for your health' - haha ! Horns are actually a pretty necessary part of driving here. You don't really look behind you when you drive (most people either don't use their side mirrors, don't have side mirrors, or just have them folded in). When you drive, you just drive forward and you honk at the person in front of you to let them know that you're there - simple right? Sure, it's a little noisy, but you never have to look behind you :) If you go to that company's website it says: "Have patience at the traffic signals, let the signal t...
