Christmas in Bangalore!

We spent the holidays with good friends Chris from New Zealand and Rixt from the Netherlands. They surprised us with a Christmas tree, decorations and presents for me and even a yummy cake for us to enjoy! They are so thoughtful!

Small field trip outside of Pune

We took a 2-week trip to another city north west of Bangalore called Pune. Here we are with daddy's coworkers somewhere outside of Pune in the mountains. We did lots of cool things like ride camels and horses and feed monkeys and eat deliciously fresh strawberries! Mmmmm yum!

This is a picture of daddy and me with a good friend named Rixt. She's from the Netherlands and oh so nice!

We saw people para sailing... too bad we didn't have time to try :(




We saw a really neat vintage looking cab... apparently somewhat common around here.



I made lots of friends during a trip.... and one of them saw that I really liked this little statue and bought it for me!!!! I was SOOOO excited and grateful!


I tried schmoozing with the locals...
We went to a really nice look out point and watched the sun set with a ton of other interested locals.
I pondered my goals in life as I stared off into the distant sunset ... one important one... to taste every flavor of ice cream in the world. A difficult task but one in which I am willing to strive to achieve ;)
Rixt and Sumeet agreed... a difficult but ultimately rewarding goal indeed.

PLEASE no more pictures

"Working" with Daddy

We're in Pune right now and we'll be here for another week or so. We took an hour and 20 minute flight from Bangalore to be here for daddy's work. Every day I come to his office for lunch and hang out with everybody in the office for the rest of the afternoon. I was pretty shy at first with people but as you can see from the pics below I've come to be friends with almost all of them. I hardly even need mama around now to have fun! I mean... to work :)

P.S. Sorry for some of the pictures not being rotated... haven't figured out this whole "mac" thing yet. Soon, my friends... soon.




Why does everyone want to pinch my cheeks and take a photo of me?! (sigh)
