My Trip to Bengaluru and Coorg (Karnataka, India)

Image
On 30th December we travelled to Bengaluru for holidays. It took almost two and a half hour to reach Bengaluru from Delhi and luckily no fog delays this time. Last year when we were travelling to Mumbai/Goa, our flight was delayed by about six hours. From the airport we took a taxi to one of my father's friend's house. As it was already evening, we did not do much that day and had evening snacks, dinner and took rest. My father had great time meeting his old pal. Next day we went to a meeting another family friend. At their home I played PS3 with their son Vibhu who was of my age. Then from there we all together went to Science Museum. The science museum was very big. It had lot's of scientific stuff which we enjoyed. GEARS ME LIKE A BEAR Then we went back to the place where we were staying. In the society there was a new year party. After the party we went back home as the next day we had to go to Coorg, a town near Bengaluru. The next da...

My Trip to Rishikesh (Uttarakhand, India)

I was waiting in my house around 4:15 a.m. for a traveller to come and take me, my family and families of some of my friends. We all went down and found the traveller waiting for us. I sat inside and found my friends playing UNO cards.Then for around 30 mins we played only two games UNO cards and Jackpot. I could see sunlight after we ended our game. Then our mothers told us to take rest for at least an hour. I slept in 10 minutes while my friends Devesh and Pruthvi did not. My friends did not sleep at all, in fact they didn't close their eyes also! OUR TRAVELLER After I woke up, I was surprised to know that I was the only one sleeping. We all played some games such as atlas, dumb charades, antakshari etc. After about about 1 hour we reached a restaurant named Bikanerwala to have our breakfast as we did not have breakfast in the morning. I had 2 big Idlis. It was enough for me. We went back to our traveller. We had many more hours to reach Rishikesh as it is in Uthrakhand ...

My trip to Florida (U.S.A.)

My dad had 4 weeks of work in his company's headquarters in Des Plaines, Illinois, after which he took one week off and we flew to Orlando to visit NASA & Disney World. Now, here I am sitting in O'hare airport, waiting for the flight to Orlando. Unfortunately the flight gets delayed. Then the announcement that flight has got cancelled made me upset since all our plans are already in place to visit NASA next day. Fortunately we got shifted to another flight which was via Miami, however the journey became longer and we reached Orlando airport pretty late at night, around 1:00 a.m. It was quite late at night when we took a rental car, Toyota Corolla this time, and started driving towards Titusville which is on the east coast of Florida, close to Kennedy Space Center. The highway was totally deserted and we hardly saw any other car on the road. I slept in the car while my father was driving, totally dependent on GPS. We reached our hotel 'Best Western Space Shuttle...

I was at my house waiting for the taxi to come and drop me to Indira Gandhi International Airport. I sat in the taxi and Zoooooooomed towards the airport. After approximately half an hour I reached the airport. It took 2 hours to complete the check-in and other formalities and then  I boarded the plane towards Chicago. As the time in India was 2:00 a.m. I was feeling very sleepy so I felt asleep. When it was around 8:30 a.m. according to Indian Standard time I woke up. I was served with lavish breakfast and a sumptuous chicken as lunch. As I was flying in Air India there was a large variety of Hollywood and Bollywood movies. I watched 3 movies Paddington, Interstellar and Finding Fanny. I watched many videos and cartoons to entertain myself. After many hours I reached Chicago's O'hare International Airport !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was very excited as it was my first visit to the U.S.A. We quickly collected our luggage and took a cab towards our studio apartment. After 16 min...
