Today we went to the Hanuman temple near our house. The road
leading up to it is really crowded and there are loads of stalls everywhere,
selling toys.
Karina wanted to buy a doll, so we stopped by a stall. But there
was this family with three little kids in front of use, and those kids were
taking FOREVER to choose the toys they wanted. When it was finally our turn to
buy something, Karina wanted a pretty doll, a giant pinwheel, two packs of
bubble gum and a whole jar of candy.
Aunt Keisha told her that all of that stuff was way too
expensive. Karina threw a tantrum, and then
Aunt Keisha dragged her off to the temple.
So basically, we ended up waiting in the hot sun for twenty
minutes for no reason.
I guess mom felt pretty bad about how the trip had turned
out so far, so she took me down to the huge lake opposite our house. The lake
is pretty dirty because a lot of men bathe in it, but it has these fish that
eat the dead skin on your feet when you dip your feet in. It’s really ticklish
when they nibble at you, and mom and I love going there.
Rita and Aunt Tara came with us too, and it was amazing
sitting there in the cool breeze. The only sound around was that of Rita and I squealing
when the fish nibbled at us!
