    I wonder why penguins? Just kidding. :) I like penguins it's fun watching them get fed.

    The snail in my picture is there because the restaurant is famous for serving snails or escargot as the call them in France.

I will work throughout until the boss has taken his bath and dinner. Then only I will go back for sure. I love Fridays as I will go back earlier instead of the usual closing time.

After the prayer with the chanting from the priest sitting in front, we were given a sweet dessert which I must receive it with both palms. Of course, we had to eat it. We adjourned to the dining hall and had our breakfast. The Punjabi tea was totally different from our usual tea. Since we had ...
