Couldn't walk down the stairs	Ski boots were really really tight

Whack-A-Mole	Shubhra is undefeated against other kids and their parents as she wins two teddy bears back-to-back only to exchange them with one big orange lion that shall be given to Texas
Other wacking games	Shubhra plays other games where she can whack stuff as she realizes she can win those easily
Anxiety Attack	Deepa suffers an anxiety attack as she finds herself surrounded with kids that have bucket full of tickets, waiting in the line to claim gifts, Deepa removes herself from the line, as she cannot handle the madness, Shubhra takes over
Dave notices Shubhra got an outdated gift	A figurine with a graduation hat and a message saying "Congratulations, class of 2000", he sighs at Shubhra's incompetence
JJ's present	Deepa and Shubhra give JJ a teddy bear they won (both JJ and teddy bear had a yellow tee-shirt on.. awwww.), it's cute therefore JJ does not want it, after repeated attempts he accepts the gift, the next morning the teddy bear is found in bed next to JJ
El Dorado	the casino Deepa and Shubhra walk into unnoticingly, not knowning all casinos are connected, they spot JJ and Texas, who ignore them since they are busy looking for a blackjack table
MAD TV	back in the hotel room, everyone enjoys a funny episode of MadTv, portraying something to the effect of the the dark side of i products, screeching Heidi Klum, the ferocious Yao Ming and a very distorted sketch of Condi Rice
Russell's on TV	Shubhra declares Russell's on TV, which surprisingly appeals to everyone so much that they get up and walk over to our room wondering if Russell is infact on TV only to find that it's Russell CROWE on TV.

Macarena	Deepa dances to macarena in the passenger's seat, while we are stuck in traffic, this disturbs the people in other cars around us
Stinkin' truck	everytime we stop in the dreadful traffic this one truck with the most unbearable stench passes by us....ugh, we speculate if it carries dead people
Guy walking on the freeway	apparently that one guy held up traffic for 2 hours
Sealand	A1, Deepa and Shubhra have discussions of philosophical nature during our trip back, the most fascinating is the one about Sealand.
Ferero Rochers	We finished 2 boxes of that candy during our trip
Lamborghini	there is one driving right next to us on our way back to Fremont, Deepa and I can't stop looking at it, and suddenly right when we least expect, it zooms past us with the craziest speed.

*Sigh* it was a fun trip
