. When nature was our teacher. . Of Summer Vacations in the past! . Blowing Bubbles! . . Out of zillions of great things we did and having the best memories of them...one of the other best things I remember doing in our summer vacations during childhood is - Blowing Bubbles!! . No soap bubbles. No plastic dispensers this. . It's all natural. . . A tree/shrub (I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE ABOUT THE TAXONOMY, THE CLASSIFICATION, THE GENUS, PHYLLUM, SPECIES NAME OR WHATSOEVER!!!!) - in our simple local language it is called - Kaachi. . The leaf is plucked out from the node with its long tender, slender stem, which oozes out semi-transparent sap. The sap present in the stalk of the leaf, the stalk is broken ingeniously..it's an extreme skillful thing to do, either you require enormous amounts of practice, or you should have the genes of my tribe!! . The bubbles are blown out through that stem. And oooh...la...la...zillions of bubbles pop out...into the air... massive, big, small, tiny, minute... everything. . Even this blowing out perfect bubbles requires some extreme skills and the whole gang of us cousins who were ACES in this would outdo each other. . . The worse is - the sap is extremely potent, and can stain clothes into absolutely non-removable mess. Our Mom's went crazy yelling at us not to make those bubbles, or keep our clothes clean. . . Just another surreal experience!! . . These pics (of not good quality) are of reliving that memory sometime ago. This activity is a compulsive, compulsory thing I like to do whenever I get back home. And I have not yet succeeded in teaching my kids in making perfect bubbles. They are still trying with their urban hands and brain 😎😌🙄 . . #naturelove #naturelovers #summervacation #environment #ecosensitive #Eco #Ecofriendly https://www.instagram.com/p/BxZerwrJbZC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=mir5sbi5ixnz
