Comic Con

A couple of weekends ago we went to the 2nd Annual Comic Con in our country :)  (to see pictures from last year's, click HERE).  There were all kinds of funny characters there :)
When we walked in, we saw our friends there.   Their daughter had the same idea as Aashini :)   Here are our cute blonde Spidergirls :)
Diya wanted to go as Tinkerbell, but wanted to wear Aashini's mask a little bit too :)
There were all kinds of booths there this year.  It was MUCH bigger than last year.  Here is the "John Carter" booth... not sure what I think about this movie...
The Avengers booth was really fun!
Aashini was Wolverine :)  (last year she met wolverine!)
There was a guy there drawing people's faces onto super heroes (for free!) :)
The girls got free coloring comic books and markers and decided to color them on the stage (they were in between sessions)... and the "paparazzi" was surrounding them the entire time they were coloring.
Spidergirl and a local comic book character.
This lady was awesome!  She had this sari hand-printed just for ComicCon!   A Batman Sari!!!  How cool is that????
Look at the back of her Sari Blouse!!!  LOVE it!  haha!
Aashini got to punch out a wall at the Avenger's booth :)  She thought it was awesome :)
Do I look like the Hulk?
Like ComicCon in America, people came to ComicCon here all dressed up (but much more conservative!! and much more clothed :))
Another X-men Character :)
This guy was scary looking!
Aashini with one of the local Cartoon Characters.... Chota Beem.

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 - 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...
