File Under "She'll Always Be My Baby"

My dad (sternly): "What were you wearing? A skirt or pants?"

And yeah, parasailing is real fun. Gives you a taste of what it feels like to be a bird - well, almost.

Parasailing is real fun.
Btw I had visited your blog long back and I had also mailed you once. Your blog is quite informative for people getting back to India and even otherwise. I really keep looking for updates everyday :)

P, Gauri, Aargee, S.B., DD, thanks. :)

S.B., I can't even imagine a sari, but would have been worth a try (to say it to my dad) just to see how he'd have responded.

my dad accompanied me to the city where i was joining b-school. we found after unpacking in the room alloted to me that i had forgoten to get hawaii slippers. he was going to town to meet some old hostelmate of his and said he'd pick up a pair for me. he got a pair alright, only it was the size that would fit an 8-yr old!
