While returning to Mumbai, I was surprised to see few sparrows in the Barrissta outlet in the Airport. They were feasting on the crumbs left by the travellers on the table and ground. Sarah was superdelighted to see the sparrows and she started running behind these sparrows excited, screaming "biiirrrdieeee biiiirrdie." Surprisingly, the sparrows that came hopping below out table were hardly scared when we tried to feed them with the crumbs of apple pie left out on the table.
Oh! and the apple pie was indeed delicious. I felt happy for the sparrows because of the good supply of food they received from the cafe. They might have come here in search of food as there were not much trees around. I was also happy with the assistance offered by Kingfisher Airline staff till the gate from which we had to board the flight.
I tied a bright green scarf around Sarah's head as she was running without any fear amidst the crowd - and this scarf helped me in locating her and of course running behind her before she enters the restricted areas. The funny part is that as soon as I catch her, she waves to all those on the way, blowing kisses and saying good bye. At times, when she realises that I am behind her, she increases her speed and runs like a pony, screeching and laughing.
We also met Pallavi, a cute Indian mom from Belgium, and her little baby Rani, who had really adorable eyes and a perfect white smile. Sarah spend some time socialising with Rani. We too had some new-mom chat. In fact, we were travelling in the same aircraft; however, I couldn't meet them after boarding the plane, but we promised to keep in touch by mail.
Take-offs and landings are nightmares to new moms - you can hear babies screaming their lungs out in the cabin. Sarah was rubbing her ear very hardly, but I started feeding her immediately to avoid more catastrophe. So this time, the flight was really peaceful and also we had a vacant seat near us, which was indeed great; so after her short nap, Sarah sat on that seat and became busy listening to music using the earphones they gave. (Earlier, when I had arrived to B'lore, Sarah had given me a real hard time - her bad mood had continued throughout the flight; by the time we landed, I was completely exhausted!)
