When I got here it was mango season. Now it is time for coconuts. They look different, they are green on the outside rather than brown.
Here is the super fun part. There are carts with men selling coconuts. What they do is that chop off a bit on the top of the coconut, stick a straw in it and people drink the milk from it. Some people don't even bother with a straw. I haven't tried it yet, but will have to soon.
Today is my boss's last day in India and last night people were asking her what she will miss. I think that for me it would be the random things like people walking down the street drinking coconut milk directly from the coconut that I would miss the most. You just don't see things like that back home.

Rob was SO excited for me to try out the coconuts that way. We each got one and he was happily sipping away while I was discovering that I did not like it at all. He was ok with that though; he just enjoyed two. :) Same goes for the salty lassis we got in this other place - lassis (sweet or salty) are just not for me.
Hope you enjoy your first coconut! and all subsequent ones too!
