Forts and Fun!

I still have a few more Gulf pictures I wanted to post... so here it goes...
One day we went to check out an old fort. You can see it in the top right corner of the pic below.
If you looked at the corners of the fort just the right way it kinda looked like a person :)
It's fun seeing forts in different countries.
Aashini had fun playing at it. We met a family while we were there and she played with their little girl for a while ;)
This was the grandmother of the little girl.
This is another relative of the little girl that Aashini was playing with. Anytime I picked my camera up she would pose (even if I wasn't taking picture sin her direction - haha!)
The view from the fort as we were leaving was awesome!

Cooking!

Jaya's Engagement!

My good friend Jaya (Mayank's sister that lives in M-town) - just got engaged!  On Sunday, I took the trip to M-town to go to her Engagement Ceremony (or Ring Ceremony).  It was a lot of fun :)!   First Stop - Beauty Parlor!  We walked a little ways down the street to a lady's house.  The beauty parlor was in one of the rooms in her house.  Jaya had already been to her house that morning to get her hair done, but now it was time for the makeup.  This beauty parlor was interesting because it only had 2 light bulbs in the whole room (and they were the energy saver kind that were dimmer than the regular ones), so it wasn't that bright inside the room.   Here's a pic of Jaya in the chair getting her makeup done.   Notice that her hair is crimped.  They use the crimper on people's hair when it's a special occasion - awesome!!! They put a  bindi  on her head and then the lady painted more and made it super fancy. Here's the finished product (after 1.5 hours)!  She...
