CWG - Athletics Part 2

Saturday afternoon Adam went with Tusshar and Vibhor to see Athletics. They took a few pictures in front of the stadium. It's a cool stadium!
Adam took his camera and got a few pics. If you look on the scoreboard, one of the runners names (track six) is Steve Slowly! haha! That made me laugh. He wasn't slow though - he came in 3rd :) The announcer had fun with his name too :)
The guys sitting in the stands :)
At one point a dog got on the track. You can see him on the right side of this photo. They had a bunch of volunteers running around trying to get him off the track. You can see one guy running on the far left. This dog made it in the newspaper the next day too :)
They had fun!

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!

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...
