Hello! so today is 3rd November And its Melbourne Cup Holiday in here (Melbourne) I will tell you about Melbourne Cup after getting into car We are just going out for usual shopping(window shopping) We aren’t buying anything but just going to browse We don’t intent to buy anything We will go quickly and browse shoes in the store and will quickly return back so as I was telling you earlier, its Melbourne cup today Melbourne cup is being celebrated since long; Its a traditional game here Its a Horse race event And whosoever wins gets the Melbourne cup Its a state holiday and been happening since ages Horse racing is pretty famous here Its a big event here But because of COVID-19 restrictions, this year is a dull otherwise a lot of people attend this event personally and not only that There are awards for ranking This year the award money is about 8 million dollar plus Only just the award money Apart from this, there is huge betting on the race You can bet your money on any horse and there are website to do that This is absolutely legal here, nothing unauthorized Betting isn’t legal in India but its authorized here There are proper website where you can bet on your horses You can earn a good money if you put money on a winning horse You get your money multiplied if you win If you know and odds are in your favor, you can earn a fortune I am thinking that I don’t remember the stores here I have been roaming but couldn’t find the shoe store I was looking And there is huge crowd here So lets see here Yes this is it! Now it will show us the path I was telling the same, we have been there. Maybe its closed So this is Athlete’s Foot store So they ask you to walk on this And you can see how you walk on a 3D projection They find you shoes based on how your foot lands So if you are an athlete, runner or need shoes for training Its better to walk on this before deciding ** Voice unclear but The store assistant is just explaining how Nupur’s foot lands etc. So what I have done is I brought out a mild stability shoes With mild arch support system So this one is Mizuno I also uses the same brand of running shoes and the one Nupur is wearing These are from Brooks Brooks are also good Brooks, Mizuna and Hoka are good running shoes This is just like “Big Bazar” of Australia (Kmart) There is so much crowd here You’ll find most of the stuff here Party related, lollies, cloths etc. Its just like Indian “Big Bazaar” Nupur is getting some Sparkles Sparkles will be used for Diwali Its like some celebration here; too much crowd Let me show you Thanks mate! Have a good one! You too Lets go We got our lunch So here is an Ice cream Parlor It makes Ice Cream “Faluda” just like we get in India It tastes good. we will get it for us and kids I will show you Its an Afghani shop Hey We are looking for Faluda Medium or Large Medium..

And these are spicy sauces we bought a whole shop of sauce there are two types of Sauces See this, this is habanero chilly sauce Its extremely hot And this is mild one Habenero is HOT! And after this, we will have our Faluda We are celebrating Melbourne cup actually So Guys, today is 4th November And today is Karwachauth (Indian Festivals for couples) So Happy Karwachauth to every couple I was thinking of making some videos for this So we did some shopping yesterday and I have included that in this video And finally we bought running shoes for Nupur I was thinking of Karwachauth’s gift for her Obviously, what I think is… We should gift the things which are needed not just anything Since, Nupur just started running recently So I was thinking of buying running shoes for her Finally she got her shoes that’s about it! So today we are fasting for Karwachauth Nupur is fasting for me and I am for her Basically, haha, this is our 12th year of our marriage and we both fast on Karwachauth Day You might think why but.. What I think is… If a wife is fasting to pray for longer life for her husband Then husband should do the same too, as Husband can only call as Husband if he has a wife Without wife, there is no husband So the Karwachauth fasting should be done by both Wife and Husband and not just that Fasting anyways helps your body scientifically The only problem I see here in Australia Like we used to celebrate this in India You break your fast after seeing the moon and in India the moon rise usually happens around 8 PM And here, it doesn’t rise till 11- 11:30 usually so the fasting day is stretched so you do around 4 hours extra And the 2nd problem I experienced in Australia is..
12:02 - generally its cloudy here on Karwachauth Night and its cloudy today too as you can see Its a nice weather but its drizzling a bit And we are walking We had to pass the time and this is our time when we talk to each other Otherwise either we are after kids or kids are after us for something So these are the two issues. Lets see, I hope moon rises on time So I just checked and moon still not visible But I installed this “SkyView” App to monitor the moon position I will show you how its gonna work; I will save it too That’s how it is In Melbourne, moon rising in North East direction If I show you the North-East direction in app You can see the moon on the right side of this Chair and the red line you see is showing its position Its still not risen and will come up soon And If I show you in the App about the timings of moon See this (sorry not visible) As per the App, 11:23 PM tonight moon will rise in Melbourne in North East direction so we are on the right track So I will record it when it rises so another benefit of any festivals and occasions is You get to eat variety of food so “Pooris” (breads) are getting prepared And what else we are cooking, I will show you Its rice pudding I like Pudding so much Poories are getting ready so the thing is this… The moon has finally up now as per app and Google But, to validate, I still went out to see it in an open ground But Its not visible due to clouds Lord shiva also has moon on his head and we open fast by looking at this moon too if the actual moon isn’t visible due to clouds since the moon is up but not visible, this is okay Now Nupur can open her fast so once again everyone, thanks for watching and once again Happy Karwachauth to everyone even if you don’t celebrate Happy married life to everyone of you I know this Karwachauth festival is mainly celebrated in North India only People in other parts of India, don’t celebrate this They do some other celebrations I wish everyone has happy married life I wish you both live happily forever Once again thanks for watching and liking my videos Thanks a lot! Bye .
