America - DeLand

We just got back from spending some time in DeLand with Adam's mom. Here are a few pictures from our time.

We went to the beach one day. They girls had fun with the sand! Aashini called it the desert :) haha!!
Daytona has hard packed sand and you can drive on parts of the beach. You can also pull wagons :)
Adam got to play basketball one day :)
We watched a soccer (football) game one morning. Aashini had fun with the soccer balls :)
... Diya was more into the athletes :) haha! We'd better watch out for this one!!!
Here's Aashini going for a walk one day :) (as you can see, Diya is busy doing some phone business on the walk) ;) haha!
One night we went and watched Adam's mom dance at a restaurant.
One of the days we went to Tampa and visited Adam's grandparents.
Aashini got to visit the dentist office that Adam's mom works in.
Dr. Pittman even looked inside Aashini's mouth :)
She had fun :)
If you want to see more, I havemore posted on Facebook :)

Very cute, summery, family post!
Love it! Especially Aashini passed out in the wagon in that first pic:) And I can see how Aashini would think Daytona was a desert...that beach is wide and huge!

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!

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...
