just shoved these in the same ol backpack and I was off .... coz it was that time of the year again .... time to use up annual leave ... time to blow up savings ....  time to bid farewell to the last year .... and to usher in the new year...

Three of us had decided on Thailand.... and a fab trip it was. There were indeed a few hick ups to begin with  .... but what a trip .... from water sports to 7/11 burgers and from the funny streets to the Boss .... after coming back I find it funny that people say Mumbai never sleeps ...  haha ... i feel it sleeps ... and it sleeps wayyyy to early ;P ..... all in all an exhilarating  and unforgetable trip to Thailand from Sawadee krab (Hello)  to La Korn (Good bye) and a perfect way to bid goodbye to 09 ....

This one reminds me of the special trip I took last New Years .... one to Goaaaah with lawschool friends. The three of us had set off for goa with a rather crude plan and low budgets ... little did we know that we were on the best trip of our lives and indeed it was nothing short of a Dil Chahta hai .... ;P 


 With one on the wheel, other with the map and third chalking out the itinerary we went out exploring the entire stretch of Goa from Calangute/Baga to Anjuna and from Candolim to South Goa ... and each other in the process as well.....

Since then I've been to Goa a couple of times and have come to love the place for its laidback and relaxed way of life ..... but I guess a near perfect trip like that or other special momments in life are impossible to recreate and all we can do is to keep taking photographs and still frames in our minds ....

Well, the year between the two trips was fine as well .... I’ve had my share of ups and a lot of peoples' share of set-backs .... but the year is gone .... the new one is here .... its like an untouched sheet of clay and I need to decide what to make of it ....

so let's go out exploring again ;P
