Hello folks,
I have been very silent for quite some time and I apologize for that. Let's pick up the pace again.
As I understand, in Australia and India the new school year has started. Whereas here, the summer vacation just started. I hope that the kids in AU and IN are having fun in their new school year. I know that Minu and Nimi are having way too much fun here at home.
Also, we have to congratulate Sheetal aunty. They are blessed with a cute little girl named Saanvi (Godess Laxmi).
And - did you know that Parthbhai is the eldest of your cousins? Some of you may know him. He just completed his medical studies in India and he just found "Direction" as to what to do next. I will let you figure out what that means. Ask your mom/dad for their pictures.
This time I have few new things for you to "puzzle over"! Again, each question is worth 1 star. Anandhi is keeping track of who got how many stars.
Here are questions (click on the picture to see a bigger view):
1. This is a picture of a "scale". Can identify what does this scale measure?
2. Can you name these red/yellow flags?
Now for some very interesting questions about locations around the world. In these questions, I have included a picture of a place. All you have to do is to name the location and also provide any additional information you know about.
A. One bonus star for identifying two famous places in this picture. Also, one more star for identifying what event made this place famous.
B. Ok - this one is interesting! Can you name this building and identify the country where it is located? Also, one bonus point for identifying who architected this building.
I hope this was fun. More to come later this week...
You can submit your answers right in the comments field here. I will publish those as and when I receive them.
