Wedding season

Just back from Bhopal.Wedding season it seems it was. Heard in TV delhi had 35,000 wedding in a day..Now thats quite something..Reason last auspicious day of the season..Seems like us indians habit of doing things at last moment catches up here as well :-)

Wedding are always fun time..Best part being the family get togethers.So here is a pic of all the cute kids posing,who were quite happy with the fact that they cld see their pics immediately after taking them..One of the reasons they were all ready to pose any time

Main function was in a palace turned hotel called Jehanumma.. Made in 1890 and turned into a hotel in 1950's. Could even locate a chamber of princes there..Wish they had a guided tour as well, oops who knows they had as I never asked..:-(

One of the pics of the pretty settings around..Never knew bhopal also had an uneven terrain with main stretch of road going up and down like in hilly regions.

Journey back home was in train and me watching all the time the scenery around.Best part was getting the side seats, where u can just lie down and keep on wacthing outside..

No need to turn ur head at weird angles like u do in other seats.(BTW this was quite frustrating for hubby considreing his height it is a difficult task fitting in.)

Never seem to tire of landscape,trees,mountains,small ponds and every tiny thing runnning by..Want to see it all and wish it cld be like that even when my eyes are closed..Guess one of the reasons I love these long drives.

During another one of our long rides went beyond krishnagiri(that wld be approx. 100 km frm where we started). Drive on NH7 was such a delight that we even made future plans on the lines that we cld go to chennai and it would be only five hours of journey..Let's see how serious our thoughts were or was it just spur of the moment excitement speaking :-)

Took loads of pics..Of the rocks the water and of course the highway..I am sure some years down the line when I am through with this obsession with highway,land water pics I will realize,how repeatitive I was..But today every pic looks so different to me.. Check out family above who seems to live with in the confines of this tonga only..

Only stupid thing was that on my way back I realized,phew , that the same scenery was certainly more photogenic..but guess was too tired to take any more pics..So made another pledge to come again and this time take pics the other way..(Actually looking for excuses to go back). Loved the sheep and the house beyond..Can u see some special glow to that house not quie similar to those huts or brick houses..cld not find out the reason..

And here is the loney buffalo..Now u might say what did I find here..well not sure but ain;t the setting with mountains behind quite nice :-)
Once the toll road ended we entered the countryside..That's where actually we came across our dhaba..Here is to the pretty country roads and of course to the lush green kheth(Not able to remember the english for it so please bear with me)
And in the end me ready to go back..
Finally hungry and tired we came across a punjabi dhaba in the heart of tamilNadu.That was quite a surprise and we had nice butterchicken and naan..

Just back home and it feels so good to be on your own bed..slept peacefully after 7 days of roaming around..Blissful sleep..
