The Rents Come to Mussoorie


Here’s a really quick blog:
Saturday was my birthday and I celebrated by going down to Dehradun to pick up my parents from the train station. We went out to eat at the Black Pepper restaurant and then drove back up the mountain to Mussoorie. I am pretty sure the drive freaked out both my mom and my dad – especially after we saw a car hit a scooter near the bazaar (I have not seen an accident here until now!)
For birthday dinner, we had food delivered from the Rice Bowl and I got to “open” some birthday presents, including American twix bars, cheetos and jello (all things I’d asked for!)
My mom and dad spent the first two nights at our place and tonight they are spending their first night at Hotel Shiva. They came to school today to watch my Intermediate Band rehearsal and then had tea with me while I ate lunch. I think tomorrow they are going to wander around the bazaar and then Wednesday they will come back to school and have a tour. After school on Thursday, we will leave for Delhi/Agra and come back to Mussoorie on Monday.
