This
was a special vacation, as I was taking dad with me back to Cochin (Kerala, India) after a long
time..last he was here when I was moving back to Mumbai. And to make this memorable the travel
was booked on Indian Rail via beautiful konkan route and to top it the place
were all green and rain rain everywhere with monsoon in full swing… I was so happy to see different colorful
bright umbrellas all around, it was like roads full of big flowers :)

At home
my grandma (Ammamma) and grandpa(Apoopa) was eagerly waiting for me and I was
also happy to see them after such a long break. But as soon as I got in and
settled the search started for the person who was not to be seen and the room
was all empty … I kept calling all day and thought he has gone to office … but
later came to know that I wont be able to see my favorite Krishmama. Later spoke
to him in Germany and also ordered for some cool stuffs from there :) the shopping list is
something very secret between us so not disclosing ha ha

Later
we all went to our ancestors home and spent a day close to nature, the specialty
of this place is it has a big river just on the backyard and during rains its all full and
overflowing. So this time I decided to learn some fishing with local friends
out there, it was a good learning session with and we even got some fishes too. Dad says starting a hobby early in life is always good and with Powai Lake in front of our house in Mumbai, thought of giving a try :)

when I got a pleasant surprise and saw my cousin Ananya coming down from Chennai.
Now the fun starts.. Post that it was all full of toys, tabby and long Ipad rhymes sessions
… Ahhhh this is life
