Snow White !

Nice to see,
A view to behold,
But when you get out there [ I tell you],

Last weekend’s one day trip to a nearby town called Winterberg.As the name suggests,and as do the pics,you can guess what its famous for. Seriously,snow looks great as long as you are either sitting,all bundled up in [...]

Waterworld

A visit to the aqua zoo last weekend, and I learnt a few new facts.
1. You have a bigger chance of winning the national lottery than being eaten by a Shark . [Screw Jaws,Open Water and all other shark movies,man.Anyways,I have no chance of being eaten by a shark.I guess I would drown before the [...]

Pretty.

Nothing more relieving than entering shopping malls on weekends to escape the chilly cold outside.And seeing some beautifully decorated Christmas trees as well .

Now,don’t ask me why the hell I go out on weekends in that case. Its basic instinct .

The way the decorations are presented at the shops just make them so very attractive [...]

Gracias,Italy! - 2

So the first thing that impressed me was the Colosseum.The next,a much lesser known one.I didn’t know it existed till I visited Rome
2.The Trevi Fountain.
Generically,for all the monuments in Rome,there is a big difference viewing it by day and by night.While by day,you do admire the architectural intricacies,by night you just admire how magnificent and [...]

Like ,maybe,driving on Indian roads.

Pics taken at a local fair in the city on Sunday.Wonder why people go for such rides and then scream the hell out of their lungs once they are on it.Doesn’t make sense to inflict such sheer terror on yourself. Some idea [...]

And,thus..

Suddenly,before you know it,two hearts start to beat as one.Two minds think alike (not great minds,necessarily ;-))
A single look conveys a thousand words.You don’t have to speak to be heard.

Living the moment

There are some moments in life,that you just cannot describe in words. Those few minutes of absolute silence.The feeling of having left behind all your troubles at the foot of the hills.When you can hear nothing,no,not even the wind.Just the mountains,all around you,tall,imposing,majestic. The slight breeze caressing your face gently.Moments when there are absolutely no [...]
