going on vacation

I am going out of town on Friday evening. I am going on a pilgrimage trip and then will be going to meet my grand parents. One of my aunt has also come down from Dubai so I will get to meet them too. I am going to see them after 2 year so I am really eager to meet them. I will be staying there for a week and I will get back on 30th. It is a long trip but don’t worry I will keep in touch once in a while by logging in from my grand pa’s place.

The spiritual trip

I have been born for 20 years and this is the first time I am visiting a city north of the country I have been born in. Me and my father have planned on a trip to Shiridi. The trip starts from Chennai. We take a train from Chennai to Mumbai on an air deccan flight and then land up at Mumbai and take a taxi to Shiridi Through Nashik. We started off from Chennai and the flight journey took less than an hour to reach Mumbai. We have planned to come back to Chennai from Mumbai in a train and I heard someone say that ir will take almost 36 hours to come back to Chennai from Mumbai in a train. Now that’s technology for you. Anyway we landed up at Mumbai and took a taxi to Shiridi. The journey was for almost 4 hours and we had the chance to drive through some of the best green fields I have ever seen in my life. It was such a beautiful experience to look through the windows of the car into the green fields in the villages we were passing through. Especially Nashik was a pretty good sight to see. And after four hours of travel, we reached our destination and got to see Sri Sai baba and then stayed over for the night, mainly because my dad does not prefer night traveling. The following day we started off back to Mumbai and that’s where I had some major fun at India gate traveling into the Arabian sea on a ferry. Then I did some shopping and then started back to the station to catch the train back home. This was one of the most strenuous experience of my life. 36 hours in the train. Damn it. So that is my experience on the trip to Shiridi.

Perfect holiday

My idea of a great weekend would be lazing about home, having good home made food, watching TV (esp. sports), play cricket or shuttle. I don't strain myself to do something that involves putting some effort from my part and so I guess that pretty much rules out traveling, partying or such stuff that most people find interesting . I guess thats pretty much me. I have done enough thinking for the day.

So guess i am much of a
Cheap Holidays kind of a person. Family Holidays also catch my imagination and i love to spend time with my kith and kin. otherwise i love to browse the internet at holiday time. my favorite pass time is to look up the net for informative stuff.sites like wikipedia have always been my favorite!.so that is me. i am the guy who likes to chill out at home and watch the television and take rest. sipping a cool lemonade or coconut juice in the beach of Caribbean would also be the best time of my life!
