This week in India Dad and I went to a cooking cooking class and learned how to make butter mushroom masala, aloo (potato) paratha, dal fry, plalak paneer (cheese and spinach curry) and japarti breads. Tomorrow we will go to another one and make aloo gobi (potato and cauliflower curry), garlic naan, and malai kofta (sweet curry).
Give Danielle a camera, show her some cute little monkeys and what does she photograph?
Before we did that we visited a huge market that was so busy that it was difficult staying together.There where hundreds of stalls with crazy people trying to sell fish that looked as if they had found it in the gutter and left it in the sun for a few months until it was nice and crispy and they smelt worse than they looked. There was shrimp too, all just as smelly and stale as the fish. If you dared to pick up one of the fish and bend it I'm sure it would just snap and crumble.The shrimp didn't look like there was much to eat either, it was just skin and shells.It was like nothing I'd seen or smelt before. But there were still people buying them!
We went on a tour to Goa's biggest waterfall.we couldn't get there by car so we went in a jeep there where monkeys there people where feeding and above the waterfall there was a train bridge. it wasn't very enjoyable because there where so many tourists there but it was still fun watching the monkeys.
"oooh.. I didn't notice that..."

Hey Willow
all looks like fun. Did you try anything with the dried fish? I remember smelling them in a market in Thailand and was very glad no one ever served some of it to me.

Yeah, I always wondered what they used the dried fish for. Ick!
Glad to hear you guys are having fun.
