Somehow, for all of my life I thought that pineapples grew on trees like bananas and coconuts. They grow on the ground. That's such a mystery to me.
Our conference starts tomorrow and so day by day we have been seeing more and more familiar faces. Sunny and I were in a market yesterday when we ran into some old friends from India that aren't even here for the conference. They took us out to dinner tonight to this place where you pick and grill your own meat at your table. So it's a sort of buffet, but a huge portion of it it raw meat and fish and vegetables. At each table they have some small grills and you put your meat on there to cook it. There were all sorts of interesting things that we had never seen or tasted. It was fun.
