Well Of course They DO!!..Its not like I go to them an say..$%%$^& $#^&^*^&^ #@$#%^#% (thats japanese for .."Hey I think you boots are lovely..pose please!! )
You guys really must be thankful..all this photu taking is high risk activity..puhleeez DO NOT TRY IT AT HOME...It has to be done veryyy veryyyy discreetly..yeah thats right..else you run the risk of getting few pattaars..or getting a hole drilled in ur foot with one of their pin point heels..
Vee was actually wondering how I do it..he thought that I have this chocki (an apple in my case)..then I "accidentally" drop it down..then "ooppppsss"... go down on my knees to pick up the chocki (or half munched apple) ..then click click click click..all around..get like half a dozen snaps..HAH!! His imagination knows no bounds!!
Wish things were that simple..
Anyways coming down to the point..its not about me taking snaps..its about what happened next..(sigh*)
In the voodoo classes I had attended a loong time back they always warned me that Jap curses were reallyy strong..I guess one of the Jap hen makkalu (read "chicks") actually was smart enough to notice what I was up to..in the train of course..
She must have cursed me big time..cos I lost my camera :(..yeah..reallll baddd..
I was at the tokyo tower..awesome..its some 13 mts taller than the Eifel tower..and blah blah..u can check out the rest of the statistics on the net..
after which we came out..an saw this place selling some very yummy looking stuff..somethng called japanese crepes..
My hubby bought one..its more like our own dosa..with real wierd toppings..thay have this dosa..put some cream..some icecream..some syrup..some peaches and the works..tastes sad..(man my mouth is watering for masala dosa)..
So I wanted to take a snap of this..that was the last snap I took :(
We were on the bench..eating..some indians came along..adu nam kannada mathado jana..we were soo thrilled..started yack yack..
"bengaloorinda na..ohooo naavu aste.."
"illi idly vade sambhar elli sigatthe gottha??"
"illa...che che..en jana no uppu khaaraa enuu thinnalla..."
"alrii adu henge baduktharo.."
(English translation:You from blore? coool so are we (big smile)..
Do you know any place where we can get idly vade sambar..no...
damn..these guys eat no salt and spice..how do these guys survive ..i say..)
This went on for quite a while..we were so happy..said byee..exhanged cards..left my camera on the bench..and happily walked away.. :(
(Dee wipes a tear )..
But somethings deep inside tells me that I will surely find my camera..I know I can get a better one here..but im very sentimental about this one..probably the most expensive gift I have given myself..besides I had taken nearly 300 really nice snaps that day..mostly mine..
So all of you please pray..Madz and me are up to something on this..I am positive it will work.
more soon :)

yaar deeps... god was tryin to tell something to ya...

freeeek out!!!
I thought Koreans were good at this Vodoo magic stuff. That's why Korean horror movies are a big "hit". I laugh my heart out when I see these movies... No Paresh Raval, No Akki, No Arshad Warsi, but these movies are simply hilarious. You know, the people in US don't allow anyone take snaps of their children coz they fear big time of Child po*********. Singapore alli, I have not taken many snaps.
Something actually tells u that "you'll get ur cam back"? nice. But as Aditya said, you're in the land of Technology. Get 1 from there.
Hey hi there.....me adi's friend

Hey Dee!

Lady, BUY A NEW CAMERA!!! God's sake, u r in JAPAN!! And if u find your old one back,no probs...Good for u and me... u can always gift the new one to helpful, friendly, good, deserving souls like me :)))
Hey Dee,
Your blog of train was really coooool..!!!! Its like a feast for my eyes.. You know how much I like watching feet. For a change I got some sophisticated boots to see..
And your description of women is very nice there specially the eyelashes... I kinda want to go to this place now.
Trust me..!!! inspite of all this North Indians criticizing our food-- Kya hai ye South Indian khane mein, sirf idli, vada, sambar , dosa our chutney.... I feel like ahving hotel Dosa once a week and home made I don't mind one meal a day.. I want to send them to Japan!!
Actually if i read your blogs I will either feel like running to Japan because of the description of the city or never go there for the lack of good food.
In both cases you are doing a good job. Keep up the good work dee!!!
Boy oh boy!! Are they boots or what!!!??....it's like they are all set to enter the Alligator ally...works well for the marshy land and apt to stab the alligators too...:)
Sagarika :)Thank you soo much :)
Heyyyy Dee,
Konnichiva!
So u gallivanting in Japan haan?
Cool! Btw why do u and vee love to take photos of unknown people...I mean I get bloody irritated if someone comes into the frame when I am shooting the sunset or some monument.
You should go to London to find the biggest collection of cute chicks wearing big heels..My mom's first question was don't they suffer from spondilitis.
Dee do you really have so many friends or is it... anyway will be back,,,have some mailing to do ...sigh*...something is in the air ...it must be pollen grains..
