San Jose

Nice weather, bright blue sky. Srinu picked me up from South san jose and we picked up the rental car from SJC airport. I then followed him to 880N , as jammed as always. Remembered the time I used to walk down stevenson blvd.
Siri was so shy , but now she has got used a bit to me. She is a musical baby. In the night I remember Neeharika and jyothirmai a lot.
So I went to kekdas place and we had an omlette which was laced with cheese. that place was very beautiful, I think its called oakyard road on lickmill. Blue sky not a single cloud in sight and we got into kek's infiniti G3Five and drove down to santana Row. Now Surya deserves a pat as he saved a crash. Amit was giving me the camera, keks was saying something and one car was backing up in front.
Directions:
montague expressway , Rt when coming from fremont 880s, then right on lickmill which is just after orchard st.

Nothing was purchaseable at Santana Row , though lot was watchable. There was tag heur watch which Shah rukh khan advertises in India. Keks didnt know what tag heur was so we thought it was good that in a CAP country he doesnt know about TAG.
Then in the night we went to Shanthis place where for the first time I saw Mounish and is he cute. Eeshas grown a bit and hates being called baby, she likes being called Eesha kiddie, I mean she said that the photograph should be called Eesha kiddie. I hope she becomes a great writer or scientist.

Bangalorean wedding

It was a windy day and president kalam's motorcade whizzed past . Police officer was shouting hey hudugi(Girl in kannada) to a girl trying to cross the road "who didnt understand what hudugi was".
Vehicles of the convoy were whizzing past at 60 mph. I stood by the signboard chatting with mayank and abha. Nitish was given charge of shooting with a camc. There was international participation. Then the car came with bade dulah and chotte dulah ie. big groom and small groom . There was much dancing with ex-palak and Neerajs Mama leading the baraat. That was the high point, escaping getting hit by a scorpio ...talk about the sting of a scorpio. Then We went back to the apt and spread rose petals on the bed :). Came back had a swig with neeraj at the watering hole , then came home and was soooo excited that couldnt sleep till 3 am.
Cheers!
