Lunch at the Pathaks


 Image Dec 2nd, 2006 - Today, my father's friend, Amiya has invited us for lunch at his new home.  He came around noon to pick us up. We had a nice drive to JP Nagar where his house is. His apartment was on the 7th floor and we had a great view of Bangalore from his house. He had a nice house with plenty of space and I had a great time. Amiya Uncles wife and maid had cooked a great lunch for us. Too bad I could not taste it. During lunch, the maid played and entertained me.  We went home around 4 PM. Its my last two days in India. I think I am feeling a little sad now leaving everyone behind Frown.

 Image Dec 1, 2006 - Its going to be a busy day today from what I hear. My parents wanted to go shopping today and left me with my grandmother for a couple of hours. My cousins Akash and Aditya were coming in from Yellahanka. Its the first time, I would be meeting them. They came in around noon and I started playing with them. My aunt Deepa, her husband Jeykumar, my grandmother (by relation) Tara and my greatgrandmother (by relation) Somi also come over. She had brought some nice dishes too and we had a potluck at home. I played with Aditya for a while. It was fun.

Toy Story I - Winnie the Pooh Mobile


 Winnie the Pooh Mobile

This was the first toy that my father got for me.  He felt that a toy that moved, made sounds and had lights would be the best toy.  He made a good choice. I love this toy. The mobile is very bright and colorful and has a Winnie the Pooh theme.  

 The mobile attaches to the bed right above my head. The mobile plays three tunes, the Winnie the Pooh tune, a classical music selection and peaceful sounds of the forest. I dont like the sounds of the forest, I'm a city baby.  The tunes run for about 10 minutes and my parents really appreciate the remote that came with it.
