Weekend out Sayan

We had some relatives come over to Bangalore this weekend. They were my wife's uncle's family. These were the first visitors to our new home in Bangalore. Sayan also enjoyed the weekend due to the tiny visitors. Uncle has 3 kids. Sayan was happy to play with them. In fact Sayan loves it when there are more people in the house.

Saturday we went to the HAL (Hindustan Aeronautics Limited) heritage museum. The kids loved seeing the planes. Sayan loves planes and cars. Amongst the many toys he has, the maximum would be planes and cars. There are many planes of the past on display there. He gets more excited when going closer to them.

Went to Lalbagh gardens. Spent the evening. Sayan did lie down on the grass lawns. This is the first time. Earlier attempts used to make him cry. He enjoyed rolling on the grass. Later went to some of the many malls.

Sunday we went off to Wonderla Amusement Park. Tried to take Sayan to the many rides, but he was scared. The only ride he sat in was the Merry Go Round ( carrousel). He in fact wanted to sit in the same ride many times. He loved to sit on the horses. He infact sat on the horses 3 times and was still asking for more rides. It was so nice to see him enjoy the ride. I had to go in the ride myself to catch hold of him (lest he hurt himself).

But one thing I noticed is how people don't at all care. When I took him in the ride more than once, I could see that some other parents were unhappy. I do not blame them, but I think for children in general, people should be careful. I did not want to explain Sayan's condition, so I did not care. In fact in some of the crowded areas, I have to be extremely careful, else someone could mistakenly bump on to us.
