Yep.. Made it back safely after all. Though Ma had a tough time during the journey..it's really too long for her.. And she hasn't recovered yet from its after effects.. Is still feeling jet lagged and is having to use the nebuliser in the morning and evening.. Sumit and I are worried of course..
Bangalore is so beautiful.. Woke up early in the morning to a crescendo of cuckoos calling and crows cawing. Since it's so cold in Seattle, we are usually shut in, which shuts out nature's sounds. But of course the views there are so spectacular, so that makes up for the lack of bird sounds.
Malu (Malavika), Sumit's girl friend, a really lovely loving person, has also joined us here, has arrived here after her trip to her home town, Payyunur, in Kerala.. Sumit had also been there to her home and has brought back some gorgeous pictures.. Malu has promised to take me there when she goes next..
Made some fish curry, bong style, and had it with some jackfruit seed and raw mango curry, Kerala style, which Malu's Mom made and sent back with her. The highlight of the meal was the fresh curds I had with it..after all the Greek style yoghurt, it felt heavenly.. But am missing all the delicious fish I had back in Seattle.. Fresh halibut, black cod, salmon.. I wonder if one gets those fish here..
Bangalore isn't that hot, I mean compared to other places here in India in the summer, but after Seattle, it feels sweltering.. Ma's having a tough time too.. Sumit hasn't fixed the ACs yet, mainly because we will be shifting to a new flat, which will be ready some time in June.. But I think the AC has to be fixed and Ma has to gradually acclimatise to the weather here..
