White Kids and Motorcycle Minivans!

We have noticed that Indians take a great interest in white people.  We stick out like sore thumbs and draw attention everywhere we go.  One day this little boy came running up to one of Mike's coworkers (who was here visiting from the US) and me while we were waiting for our car.  We couldn't figure out what he was doing at first and then we noticed this man (assume it was his dad) taking a picture of the boy with us.  So, we both just smiled and waved at the camera.  Then they were finished and rushed off.   HaHa!

So, I was at the mall having lunch the other day with a friend and her two little boys.  I discovered that Indians LOVE little white babies even more than they love middle-aged white ladies!  The girls below (and the guy that was with them) couldn't get enough of the baby.  I have to admit, he IS one cute kid with a personality to match!






He was loving the attention.  His big brother...not so much!  Brother was off to the side eating an ice cream cone, thinking to himself "better him than me!"









Motorcycles (or scooters) are the preferred mode of transportation for most families.  It's not unusual to see several people on a scooter.  However, this family of 6 is the most I've yet to see.  Someone we know has a picture of 7 people on one.  So, now I'm keeping my eye out for one with 8!
