A Super SIX-cessful Weekend in Tampa

Here are pictures from our Super Bowl XLIII weekend in Tampa, where the Steelers won 'one for the other ring finger'.

There's No Place Like Home

After 4+ months of travel, it's great to be back in Minny, where it's quite cold, but quite sunny. Here's a picture of us back at home, with the Sant family -- Rina, Savan, Sagar, the unborn baby, and the REAL Tushar (although we still think the dude in Florence was a better version of Tushar). 

For anybody's who interested, I'll post a link to a 'greatest hits' photo album from the entire trip sometime in the next week or so. 

To sum up our last 4 months, we visited 16 countries, and Pallavi beat me in Scrabble 10 games to 7. We had an amazing time, and we thank you for coming along with us!

Happy New Year, Part Deux!

Why settle for one New Year's Eve when you can have two! That's what I always say. Thanks to the genius of time zones, the international date line, and our flux capacitor, we were able to celebrate New Year's Eve twice. After the first celebration in Sydney, we hopped on a plane at 10am on Jan 1 and arrived in Tahiti (given the weather here right now, it should be called 'Ta-COLD-i') at 9pm on Dec 31, giving us plenty of time to ring in 2009 once again. Strong! Next year, we're going for the hat trick. Here are a couple pictures from New Year's Eve 2.0.We hope you had a great 2008 and that you have an even better 2009!

Happy New Year!

Here are a few pictures from New Year's Eve in Sydney. As you can see, we had a decent view of the Sydney Harbor Bridge, which is the focal point of the fireworks extravaganza at midnight. I wanted post a short video of the midnight countdown and the beginning of the fireworks, but the computer I'm on right now isn't allowing me to upload videos. Oh well, I'm guessing the footage you might have seen on CNN is better than what I captured.

Here's a picture I'm posting purely for Pallavi's benefit.......it makes her really happy when her brother and I hug. As you can see, it makes Parth really happy too.
Joining us in Sydney for New Year's Eve was Paris Hilton, who apparently received $100,000 to attend a party. Pallavi and I didn't receive quite as much. Here is a picture of her after she got into her car outside her hotel (photo courtesy of Parth Sharma Photography, New York, NY). The big question on everybody's mind -- why was Paris HILTON staying at the Sydney SHERATON??
