- Monthly Bill in a 4 star Indian hotel: $8,000 US Dollars
- Spending Diwali with your US friend & his family in India: Priceless!
One of the engineers that works for me in the states “Suresh Lankalapalli” is in India this month on vacation. Today is Diwali which is equivalent to Christmas in India and there are fireworks going off everywhere.
Hyderabad Fireworks
Suresh invited Mike and I to the family home where he grew up. We met his lovely wife “Antara” and a good portion of his large family.
Here is Suresh & Antara in Traditional Indian clothes
We shared about an hour of conversation on many topics and learned that Antara is a trained traditional dancer & model. We also found out that Suresh’s nephew “Pandu” and his niece “Keerthi” like to dance too. It wasn’t long before we moved out of the living room and into the family room to watch everyone take turns dancing to local music and cheering.
This was one of the best experiences Mike and I have had in India and really refreshed us on this long assignment.
Here are some fun pics & videos from today
