Random Mauritius SnapShots (part 2) !

Some more candid shots from the streets of Mauritius.


1. Bag and Hat Seller Sellers. I love the colors and the multiple hats they are wearing.

2. Street Fruit Selelrs (Apples and Oranges). You can get basically everything out of the streets in Mauritius.. just make sure to wash them clean :)

3. Bananas for Sale

4. Port Louis Shop. Many small shops still exist all around Port Louis and sell all kinds of wares. Check out the puma imitations :)

5. Fruit Cart on streetside.

Facebook in 40 years!

Ever wondered if we'll still be using facebook in 40 years?? If so, how will our profile look like then?? What will our updates be?? I got this forward which I thought was very interesting.. Click on the bigger size picture and check out the wordings and applications.. funny.. read the updates and check out the photo gallery of that user :)

---------- Forwarded message ----------

At the moment the generational difference means that the vast majority of users on sites like Facebook are the younger generation. But the other day, it crossed my mind that in the future, 40 or so years, Facebook will look somewhat different when we've all got a touch older. I know this thought is a bit random but I strangely find it interesting.

movies.. movies.. movies..

I flew British Airways out of San Francisco today to London and as usual, each of these flights is my time to catch up with the so many movies I missed. I did not sleep for most of the flight and got a good fill of movies. They had a pretty nice on demand list with a good selection of new releases and also a library with a great collection of classics such as Last Samurai, Il Postino, Cars, Shrek etc.. I caught up on the newer movies. I watched these 5 movies.
  • Forgetting Sarah Marshall
  • Meet Dave
  • Baby Momma
  • The Love Guru
  • Mein, Tum aur Hum
Forgetting Sarah Marshall was the best and Love Guru was the worst.

Money... Money.. Money...

Before I went to deposit the money i got from the car sale to the bank, I thought as it's probably the only time in my life, I'd have so much cash in hands, I should take some pictures. Here they are..  the car sale proceeds !!
