#173/366--Bollywood

Michael is going to StarTalk Academy
 this summer.
This is an advanced summer school 
for future foreign language students
of Chinese, Hindi, and Arabic.
It, according to Michael, is much like "school."
The kiddos are there Monday-Thursday,
9-3,
and they "work."
Today, we went on a field trip to...
...to say this was out of our comfort zone...
would be an understatement.
...FunAsiA is...
...a radio station...
...a banquet hall...
...and a Bollywood Movie theater, as well...
We got to see the movie...
"Koy Mil Gaya"
(wikipedia says that translates to: 
I Found Someone)
This movie was...
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
meets
Forrest Gump
meets
E.T.
meets
Mary Poppins
meets
Karate Kid
Yes.  Take all the elements from those movies...
and you get...
...Jadoo...
(magic)
The movie was nearly 3 hours long.  
With subtitles.
But.
Overall, the experience was worth it.  
It was...
...interesting.  
And the movie ended up being cute....
...a bit long...
...a bit replayed...
but...cute.
