June 23rd 2024: Flip Circus, Marlborough

Today, we had tickets for Flip Circus, held on the parking lot of Solomon Pond Mall in Marlborough.


Surprisingly good performances I must say, 







especially the unicyclist.


From here, we headed to Saffron Indian Restaurant and Bar, a new Indian restaurant in town replacing the Westender, which I visited once in the past. Nice decor now.
We got the Onion Kulcha

and the Goat Chetinadu (coconut based sauce cooked with South Indian spices).
Pretty good, if not for the onions in the naan.

June 22nd 2024: A Day of Birthdays

 Today, we started out with a birthday party at Fun and Games, an arcade in Framingham.







Glad my little one had his first Lasertag experience here.

From here, we headed to the SEACMA Asian Festival, 





held at Worcester State University in Worcester.






Some pretty good performances today,





Especially the Tinikling and Binasuan dances by the Filipinos.

Unfortunately, we had to leave early for another birthday party, which ended up in the garage due to the rain. Glad my little one had a fun time though.
