Jenneli and Brooke wanted to visit the MWH office in India which was in Pune and as luck would have it Pranesh’s parents are also in Pune. Unfortunately we only had 24 hours to do both. We took a very early train to Pune and was greeted at the station and brought back to the MWH office. Jenneli and Brooke had a great time seeing some of the people they had met before and seeing the workings of the India office really excited them. I also have to add that the India office had better office furnishings than Pasadena, but then I like half cubes.
After enjoying the best Internet connection and office in India, Kannan, Pranesh’s father, picked us up and started showing us Pune. We went back to their home and picked up his wife and headed off to a small party were we met some family friends and got to meet a world renown cartoonist. After the delightful conversation and party we experienced a little historical play in an old castle and headed to dinner. Kannan took us to a great little restaurant that had everything from Chinese food to Mexican. Jenneli ordered “Italian Tacos” which turned out to be tiny corn tortillas with macaroni in them. They tasted about like you would expect. We had some other more normal Indian food which tasted amazing like most Indian food.
We were at home and fell in love with Pranesh’s parents. Pranesh’s father has a great sense of humor and had us laughing the whole evening. His mom made certain we were comfortable and well fed. All three of us marveled at the wonderful view they had in their home as well as the layout and comfort. It had been a while since we had been able to stretch out and relax. It was with much regret that we had to leave in the morning. 1 day just wasn’t enough and we’ll have to come back again!
