Back from a vacation
Spent 5 weeks in India. Mid april to mid june - and it was hot.
People talk about India booming. I dont think India is booming - I think India is blasting off. I actually like the changes happening. The changes do come with some negatives - but the positives are great.
Memories I will have of the trip is
1. eating mangoes
2. my 1 yr old daughter in diapers and a singlet. Would have been plain evil to put more clothes on her.
3. real estate boom
About Mangoes: There is tradition of eating mangoes. What I realized is that people spend loads of money on mangoes. I have strong memories of buying boxes of mangoes. These boxes are large - 4/5 dozen and this year a dozen mangoes cost anywhere from INR 225 to INR 450.
Back in US, I dont spend that kind of money on fruits. Peaches in California cost max $2 per pound. Cherries can get to $3.99 (these are the price points I buy at)
oh well... maybe thats why the economy is booming.
