Or my way of saying I can't find a good enough title. Yesterday we arrived to the resort here in Poovar- Isolated Island very close to the beach- beautiful. We had a great time RELAXING seeing as we were exhausted. This morning we went back to Trivandrum (Thiruvanathapuram), went to see a Hindu temple, a museum, an old palace and the best part- the zoo. My uncle decided he has to see a tiger, therefor all of us went to the zoo. It was really funny, and we saw some really cool animals like monkeys, elephants, bambis (I know it's not their real name..), hippos (and a baby one too!) and- a tiger. We also saw a lion who I think looked exactly like Scar.
Funny thing for today- this time around we found a very interesting way to point out toilets for men and women. Here are Three examples: at the zoo there were photos of a man and a woman. At the resort there was a "He" and a"She" and today's winner- "King" and "Queen". Never in my life have I felt so royal as I did in the bathroom.
So far India is very cool- It is sort of what I pictured in my head. It is really cool that my aunt and uncle can communicate, and very useful too. But we all agreed that we must figure out how to do that head movement from side to side (Nili and I have been practicing). Nurit and Shimon have been trying to teach us Mali Alam. Man, this language is a bitch . I can, however share with you the fact that my vocabulary is made up of animals mostly- I can say dog (patti), elephant (annah), frog (tavlachi), horse (something that sounds like Kudrah), and of course- monkey (korinechen). All pronounced very rolling-toung-ishly. I was so proud I could say monkey I sort of yelled it in the zoo. Yep, now a few Indian people think that I am weird. Well, I guess it isn't all that surprising.
I guess I'll call it a day- it's an annoying computer and due to the rain we had power cut off a few times (gees, shock)- won't risk it happening again.
photos to come.... sometime:-)
