Siberian Blooms

Today is a lucky day for me. I met a handful of pearls, pearls of Siberia.
Lake Baikal. The pearl of Siberia. It is the deepest and one of the purest lakes in the World.


The simple purity of these young self-starters started me thinking.  How can I go beyond meet and greet?

As it is the first meet, everyone was apprehensive. But it took off very smoothly, thanks to Anna Bukhtoyarova, Marina, Alona, Natalie, Jima & everyone at the session who made it an exciting learning journey. I had just come back from the Sunday mass to my home.

These pearls are "heart-attackers". They simply went for the heart of my family. They impressed everyone here with their brimming congeniality. Now, my wife and daughter, who missed the interaction is jealous of all of me and George who enjoyed the WOW get-together.

Our daschund "Shambhu" is seen gently murmuring at the neighbor's dog. Who knows? May be he was making the other dog green with envy.

My friends are excited about ensuing connections. My son George is excited about inviting these little pearls of Siberia as guests of Kerala! I just overheard him talking to his friends about his new friends!!

I am not sure how all these will evolve. I will be discussing this with my friends at Hello Little World Skypers and Global Classroom Project.
