Making Friends

The last few days have been my idea of vacation - spending time with family and mostly just relaxing. We have been able to go to the park and play around. This morning when we were there, we even acquired some extra little boys to play with us - we played tag, red light green light, freeze tag, etc. It was fun, and I think we made those 7 extra little boys' day. Playing like that is as much what I was looking forward to in this trip as even seeing the Taj and all the other cool sightseeing we have done. Yesterday we went to Narasimha's dad's factory and got a tour - which was cool. In the three times I have been to India, I have never gotten a tour out there. I also learned how to drive a motor bike and I didn't even crash once, although I think I almost did :) I don't know that I am quite ready to take to the very busy Hyderabad roads just yet. Today we also went on a boat and rode to a small island in a lake here in Hyderabad called Hussein Sagar, and saw a very large statue of Buddha. Now tonight we're going to chill and watch a movie I think.
