A day in the life of ..... Sun. Oct. 28 -- L O V E

Funny day today: took an auto to Forum Mall (that's about 20mins. from our house) with the kids and Phil to buy some bean bags --- ended up with an iPod and HiFi system instead! Cool, right?



Auto on the way back has this sign:

L = Losse of mani

O = Out of mind

V = Vest of time

E = End of life



I'm lovin' it here!!!!!!!!!!



This afternoon I showed the kids and Phil my Kannada language school (classroom). Phil couldn't quite believe it -- very, very decrepit building with old, decrepit, dirty walls and benches from the 50s. No blackboard, only two big black sheets hung up on the wall. View of a mini-slum. Hardly any electricity, of course. I'm thinking: who cares? No one else seems to mind, so why should I? Phil just shakes his head.



Our way home, via side streets: immediately next to my school building, a 3 storey house whose ground floor is occupied by 5 cows. One was being milked. Some slummy housing, mini corner-stores, about 5 temples, a chicken centre (live chickens in cages, of course), the recycling distribution centre, etc. etc. Cow shit everywhere, goats hanging out on one plot. 5minutes later, we're at our house. Pretty amazing, ey?



I'm lovin' it here!!!!!



Dinner was delivered: thin-crust pizza, fresh salad, and homemade pasta with spinach sauce. The pizza is on par with "Facia Luna" in Old Town.



I'm lovin' it here!!!!!
