....When you don't speak the language.
India: Day 9?
1. Play English-only pictionary with teens who don't really speak English. Your mad skills and vocabulary will cause your popularity to skyrocket!
2. Don't shy away from dancing in the rain while letting 8-9 small boys enthusiastically splash you. The fact that you are 4-15 times their size only gives them more to hit! Instant success!
3. Fail to do the correct $ to rupee translation in your head so that you end up spending a (small) fortune on silk! If you spend over a certain amount, they will start giving YOU gifts.
4. Stand around. The fact that you are (on average) half a foot taller and 30 shades whiter than everyone else will provoke people to talk to you! What are they saying? Well--just follow our learnings and DON'T PET THE COBRA.
**Sridhar's mother continues to be fascinated by me. She came over and hung out with me for an hour yesterday and today. So far she has decreed the following:
1. Saris (sp?) "Do not suit me."
2. My hands are too big and my wrists are too small.

Where are the pictures?
Ok, I'm commenting on my own blog-I can't get my computer to find Sridhar's internet, so I'll be posting pics en masse probably before I go at some point--when I can get his memory stick!
I love you sense of humor. Tell us more about the people!
Well I guess exotic piano playing is out then.
