What is there to say about the past week? Our plumbing issue was sort of sorted out, let me put it this way, it is not leaking anymore. The one hole in the bedroom wall has been patched up but not the big one on the balcony. But trying to arrange dates and times with the maintenance people is another story and I am not going to go into that now.
We had a pretty ordinary week, Friday was a holiday in India. It had something to do with flying kites or something like that. They started the celebrations off on Thursday evening making bonfires. Saturday everybody was flying kites.
On Saturday we invited a friend over for a fondue that turned out rather nice, just a pity South Africa had to go and loose a cricket match. We got really nice cheese samosa's, potato bites, chicken nuggets and some sausages that we used for the fondue.
Sunday we went over to the Novotel again for lunch and just some sunshine peace and quiet next to the pool. We went to La Cantina, the Mexican themed restaurant at Novotel. There we each had a delicious mocktail, Teresa got a four cheese pizza and I had the Chicken Fajitas with some Nacho's and Guacamole on the side. Since it was Sunday lunch and we just had a really nice and relaxing day we each sinned with some homemade ice scream and may I ad that it was some of the best ice scream I ever had. Teresa had the Cappuccino Ice cream and I had the Dulce Leche, that is the flavor of boiled condenced milk for those that do not know. It was real creamy and smooth ice cream, the only other ice scream that comes close to it is the frozen custard you get in the USA.
I do not have anything else to write about but that this week we are planning my birthday party for next Saturday but that you will have to wait for until next week's blog.
