Vacation update

It is almost a week and this is what V has been doing.

  • Meet 200 relatives at grandfathers uncle's "Navati"..all of who recognized him.
  • Watched 13 elephants decked up at a procession.
  • Run to uncle's house 100 meters away- before breakfast, after breakfast, after bath, after nap- through the day- because, the 15 year old uncle has two birds, dozen fishes, many cats, two dogs and several other pets- AND, he lets him play with them.
  • Collect hoardes of money as "Vishu kaineettam".
  • Meet an aunt and hold a 3 month old cousin on his lap- offer to take her home and give her cerelac.
  • Visit a voting booth and see the drama that is election politics- pretty early i say.
  • Get grandfather and grandmother addicted to "Lion King". Every evening i call, all three are watching it!

What papa and mama have been doing.

  • Laze around
  • Insignificant stuff..
  • Join new lending library
  • Make home made paani- puri and eat 100 in one sitting.
  • hmmm..errr* blush*
  • Invite themselves to friends houses for lunch/ dinner/ drinks/ anything.
  • Eat Junk food, and some more

Sigh!

big hug to you, cherish these few days without him, believe me, rejuvenate, recharge. Hey, how come you guys haven't been watching any movies?! That's the first thing we would do if we had a weekend to ourselves!
