Rajiv's House Warming

Rajiv's family just built a new home outside the city, near the area of Uppal. He invited us to share in their families celebration of their new home. Nikhit and Madhu took us by auto and we had a hard time finding the place. We got to see a lot of new country and we were delighted for that. Rajiv's new home is near the jungle. He told us that just a few days ago one of his neighbors had a leopord come to their home. No one was hurt and they were happy for that.

This is the road to Rajiv's new home. Rajiv came to meet us because we were lost. That's him and Madhu on the bike.

This is the road that leads to his home. It's lovely country over where he lives. I don't know why anyone would want to live in the city when they could have this open area to live in.

Rajiv greeting all of us.

You can see the new home behind the tent. We told Rajiv his family have built a castle.

The first time we went through the house there was no furniture. When we came down off from the roof, furniture magically appeared in the living room. I think this was a happy day for Rajiv and his family. This photo shows Rajiv (in white) with his 2 sisters and brother.

This is Rajiv's father and mother. I told his father he must be the king who owns this castle!!!

Rajiv and a closer look at the new home. The tent is just for the celebration. They had music and a nice lunch of Chicken Biryani for everyone who came to visit.

Washing their hands before lunch. I have always wondered where the water comes from out of these units. On the back of the top piece is a tank that is filled with water. You wash your hands and the dirty water goes into a tank on the bottom.

I love the kids. They have the sweetest faces. I don't think she ever let go of her daddy's leg.

Some of the branch members arrive to check out Rajiv's new abode!!!

Madhu found a little one to hug!! So cute!!

Awe......lunch time!!! Feeling goode and enjoying the nice day. It was a little windy in the country outside of Hyderabad.
