Grocery Shopping in Kalavai

Raj took Lena and I grocery shopping for breakfast this morning in Kalavai. As Raj bought the bananas a random person began taking our picture with the camera only a foot away, then two ladies came running over to shake our hands and talk to us. We had no idea what they said, but they seemed so pleased and had big smiles. We moved on to the next stop and everyone stared. Raj said we are super stars :) It's so strange to think many of these people have never seen a pale skinned person. When we go shopping at a store at home and we see someone of a different nationality we often accidently catch ourselves staring. It's very interesting to be on the flip side of that. It's a pretty awesome experience!!
