bollywood wedding..

Namaste everybody!
Am back from Kolkata!
The wedding was great, colourful & it was nicely integrated between the Indian & Scottish cultures.
It was a real Bollywood-style wedding, with all the dancing like the ones in the movies.
There were even fireworks at night!
A truly wonderful experience..
minus the heavy & shocking traffic all over the place..
They honk all the time, the cars are just milimeters away from each other, people simply cross the roads whenever they like, the roads are so narrow..
I literally have to close my eyes half the time in the bus/car/taxi!
(it's scarier than a roller coaster ride..yikes!)
Thank God we arrived at our destinations safe & sound..fyuhh..


Shades, you complained about KL's traffic right? Bahh, it's nothing babe!!
Come to India, then you know the TRUE meaning of traffic! hahaha..


Anyways, here are some of the photos from the trip..enjoy!

Today, I had dinner with the 'Martins'.
My family did fine..I think I was a lil bit more quiet than usual.
Even Emer stole the spotlight at one point during dinner!
I guess I was still shy & nervous infront of them.
Perhaps because he was not there.
But at least he called while we were eating. =)
The mom was nice as always.
The dad was such a gentleman and a funny fella..
Betul2 like father & son.. the way they talk.. the way they look..
Memang Daddy's boy la.. =p
Well, I now have a new family..
The family that will be a big part of my life Insyallah..
Welcome to the Martin's family Meen! We are family!
