Wii Fit

We bought ourselves a fun little gadget this weekend while in Wisconsin visiting our friend Chetan...a Wii Fit.

It's so fun...and is a really good workout. Abhay and I have done it the past 4 days. We really "felt" it after the first day using it. It's nice that it has different types of workouts: balance, aerobics, strength, and yoga. My favorite is the hula-hooping, and Abhay's is probably the ski jumping.

It was a HUGE feat to purchase one. We've been looking at stores since Christmastime...and have had no luck. I would check in the morning sometime, we'd check at night: pretty much checked every time we went into Target or Walmart. No luck. We were in a Best Buy in Kenosha, WI on Saturday night and we looked for one. A worker in the store overheard me and said to check first thing in the morning because they were in the ad and they HAD to have some on the shelf. We got there about 15 minutes after the store opened and the shelf was empty. I waited by the shelf while Abhay went to find someone to ask. While I was waiting there, another gentleman came in looking for one. About 30 seconds after he showed up and store worker came walking up holding one and she said, "who wants this one?!!" The gentleman was nice enough to say, "she was here first..." It felt like we accomplished something big by getting one. I actually felt guilty, and bad for the guy.

Here's a pic of Abhay doing the tightrope activity:
