Today we made some additions to our photos page. You haven't missed anything if you didn't look at the page before, but now there are much more than four pictures on there. After reading recently about the excruciatingly slow connections in Internet cafes overseas, we really don't expect to change that page until we get back. Maybe we'll all be surprised though.
Over the course of this week, we taught Punkin how to shake a paw and shake the other paw. She pretty much has it down pat now but will only oblige us when we are holding a treat in front of her nose. She much prefers that we throw the ball for her or chase her around the dining room table. We also watched Gandhi (for some historical insight on the relationship between Pakistan and India), and Brokedown Palace (for shameless entertainment about two American girls who wind up in a Thai prison). We walked for miles in appropriately steamy weather to pick up Magi's visa for India. We've also been doing some conditioning of our bodies for the trip by spending more time outside and more time on the treadmill. We do this knowing that once we meet Trish and Saf in Delhi we are going to have to be able to keep up with them!
We have also been taking it easy. Our days ususally begin around 10 or 11 a.m. and end at about 1 a.m. We have succumbed to watching Judge Judy and the incessantly repetitive programming on VH1 without shame, we indulge in our favourite delicious vegan foods like Soy Dream, Tofutti cheese slices, Better Than Cream Cheese, Yves sausages, and Boca burgers (just to name a few) while we still have them at our fingertips, and we revel in the joys of life without a schedule. Note: we do have a minor amount of intellectual capacity left and we will be going out to a performance tomorrow night called Glory Box.
We hope everyone gets to have at least one day without a schedule this week.
