Webshots Desktop One day - "House in the Clouds" image just appeared in my desktop last year. It was fed by webshots desktop daily feed to my laptop. There it was up in the sky - shrouded by the clumps clouds and mystifying mist. It was a beautiful image. I thought at that time - its a lovely picture. The house sits at the top of a long pillar. The pillar is 6 stories high rectangular sky scraper with multiple windows. A real house sits on top with high gabled roof complete with fire chimney jetting up from one side of [View Full Entry]

Land between lakes - Interlakin As the obvious name implies, Interlakin - is a town in the glen between two big emerald green lakes and imposing snow clad mountains. Its ideal location at the foot hills of the Swiss alps makes it the perfect base camp town for forays into the likes of Europes higest mountains Jungfru, Shilthorn etc. Perhaps Latterbrunnen would be the perfect place however it doesnt have the charm of Interlakin. Charming town When I talk about charm of Interlakin - the place is really charming indeed, so much so that a couple in their 70s from Boston [View Full Entry]

Almost didn't take the trip ! What a lovely train trip crossing over the Swiss Alps into Italy. Bernina express trip ranks very high in the list of beautiful and wonderful railway journeys. But I almost didn't take the trip due to tiredness. I had a long train journey the previous day from Interlakin to Davos dorf - about 8 hours journey. I was kind of had enough for the day and didn't fancy taking another 8 hours trip. However, next day I thought I might as well. But I didn't know how beautiful this trip going to be. The train [View Full Entry]

I had a wonderful time last Saturday in Guildford summer festival - called 'Guilfest'. I have been in Guildford for few months for training. The usual suspects from our social club decided to attend the festival. As I am new to social club I didn't know what to expect on the day. So I turned up to the club on Saturday morning rather innocently only to be jolted by the vision of grown up men, all dolled up in make-up with glistening lip-gloss and lady's frocks ! - A sight for sore eyes indeed. There they were - Chris, Collin, James, [View Full Entry]

I didn't know that I was going to Barcelona until the day before Easter Friday. Suddenly I found myself not working for the easter unexpectedly. So I took the following four days from Tuesday to Friday holiday. That gave me 9 days altogether ! I wondered where on earth I would go. Thought Spain would be nice. And so I found myself in Barcelona on Saturday. Oh Boy, hadn't I made the right choice. I looked for the flight and found that Ryan air had one for 200.00 for one way !!!(normally perhaps 60 sterlings). Well, last minute tickets are not [View Full Entry]

I visited this little charming capitol city in the northeast of India few years ago when my sister lived there. They call it 'an Abode in the clouds' and it lived up to the title - lots of beautiful clumps of clouds put up a dazzling display in the crystal blue sky when I was in air. I had heard about this quaint archery gambling in Shillong before my trip. I was eager to see it. So I asked my brother in law to take me to the club. It turned out to be something very similar to racing courses albeit [View Full Entry]

" We will not forget that Liberty has here made her home; nor shall her chosen altar be neglected." - That was part of the opening speech of President Cleveland when he formally inaugurated the Liberty statue in 1886. The Liberty was presented by France to US to commemorate 100 years since independence. The statue was sculpted by the /French sculptor Frederic-Auguste Bartholdi with the help of Eiffel who built the Eiffel tower. It was transported to America in 250 pieces and reassembled at site. Now it stands on a colossal pedestal which is 10 stories high on the Liber [View Full Entry]

A city tailor made for governing country and bury the dead nobles ! I reached Washington by train from New york - a two hour journey. What struck me with amazement was the size of the train station - a mammoth station with enormous space and great decorations. It has a large atrium for a lobby in which they have a small restaurant where you can sit on the open first floor. The roof is built with succession of arches and has large hexagonal slots painted in gold yellow providing an aura of opulence. The lentils on the side where [View Full Entry]
