I Premiered!

I premiered!

I was on Indian TV everyone...talking about pearls of all things!

Let me tell you the story

Saturday we woke up and headed here:

To Charminar

We stopped at the same pearl shop we went to before

and they happened to be filming a news story for the Indian Economic Times.

Since we had been to this place before they considered us experts...and it might have helped that we are white.

So I got to experience the OTHER side of the camera for a change.

It was weird to be interviewed instead of being the interviewer

I have to say...I don't think I did a very good job 

Especially because they were asking questions about pearls

As much as I wish I were an expert....sadly, I am not.

They enjoyed it though

and I have to say I did too.

Now, why am I not getting internship credit for this?!

After my big debute visited the Mecca Masjid

One of the largest mosques in India

Interestingly enough, it was bombed in 2007

This old guy is 83 years old and was kind enough to show us around

and then ask for 100 rupees from each of us for the tour

 

The kids were following us around again

We had to cover our heads and take off our shoes

Me and Lindsey

Such a beautiful place

It's also one of the oldest mosques in Hyderabad

We also did a little shoe shopping

no this isn't me

It's just funny how every woman in this country seems to wear one inch heels...no matter what they are doing or where they are going.

Then we climbed to the top of Char Minar tower

It's a busy place

with camels

and kids

and friends

Me and Lexie

and more kids

and autos

and me!

This is the main shopping district at Charminar

SO MANY PEOPLE

 Another shopping street

QUITE an eventful day!

With love,

A

P.S. Tonight I ate fish eggs...you know...like in a sac. It was as disgusting as it sounds...so much worse than the goat brains!
