 | Dec 3rd, 2006 - Its Dec 3rd, time for us to head back to Los Angeles. This means the end of my month long vacation in India. I already see sadness on everyone's face. I hate these days when people have to leave. Most of the day was spent packing last minute things. I sat all day playing with my toys. In the evening, my grandparents, cousins, uncles and aunt came home to say good-bye. I will not be seeing them for a while. We left for the airport at around 8 PM. The checkin was smooth and we then waited for the boarding. The waiting area was full and not one single person had the courtesy to offer my parents a seat, seeing me in their arms. Fortunately, the airlines boarded passengers with babies first and we were on our way to Singapore!!! |

 | 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  . |

 | 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. |
