My family knows how to smile. My family knows how to celebrate. My family knows how to party! It was a crazy goodtime festive wedding in Nusa Dua, Bali. My niece Maithili got married to Rishi. The hashtag #mrsmrs (Mrs. Maithili Rishi Sanghvi) was at center-stage.
Four days of non-stop partying and celebrations left us all more energized than exhausted. Memories will last a lifetime. It was a stunning venue at the Sofitel in Nusa Dua with multiple parties spanning the entire resort. Dancing and drinking and fun and great food were the only items on the agenda.
These pictures (or videos) don’t really do justice to all the fun and festivities, but here are a few:

As for training, it is not going quite as well as it was a couple of weeks back. My sessions are laborious and unmotivated. The 8-miler on Monday was torture. The bikeride on Thursday was hilly and slow, weaving through the crazy traffic of Bali but super super fun! The 11-miler on the treadmill on Sunday was even worse. Late nights, drinking and now jet-lag doesn’t help. I hope it improves.
