The long awaited return of a post. Sorry to keep everyone in suspense about what is going on in India. I have a really long post that I need to do about the trip to the Taj Mahal but I wanted let you start your weekend off with a fun game we like to play here.
Men in India wear what is called a “sparkle sweater vest” which is made out of astro-turf type material and comes in your basic colors (black, beige, burgundy) plus an assortment of incredibly un-manly colors (bright pink, yellow, and baby blue). I haven’t been able to capture the more un-manly colors but trust me they are out there and we see plenty of them!
For whatever reason the guys that I am with really want one but we can’t seem to find them in any of the malls or markets. They even went as far as asking the team at work where they could get one. Surprisingly, no one on the team had seen one of these vests. We've taken the team out for a few meals or what they like to call "treats" and they want to do something nice for us...I told my team that it would make my day if they got all the guys a sparkly sweater.
Our car ride to work has no turned into a game of spotting the sparkly sweater vest. Remember punch buggy no punch backs? Well here you yell… green sparkle at the Tuk Tuk! You punch the person you are next of course. Yesterday on the way to work there were about 12 people in these amazing pieces of fashion and today the elevator operator had one on….it has been an awesome two days! The video below was an accident but was too funny that I had to post anyway.

This one is great because Kaizer is actually saying chazzle dazzle.
