Last weekend we visited Swathi. It was not a planned trip, wanted to get out of Jersey and proposed to visit Boston and the same day Swathi asked me If we wanted to visit her this weekend. I grabbed the opportunity and we decided to drive to Boston a Friday evening and come back on Sunday afternoon. As I have discussed before also, plans never work out and we ended up driving there on Saturday afternoon and reached there late in the afternoon. I feel so comfortable in her house, we washed and changed. She made an awesome snack for us along with tea. We ate to our hearts content and went to see Harvard University and to be specific MIT. Now I come from a Management background and M comes from a Technical background. We had our regular little talk about management tops every other discipline and he protested…..We had a small encounter with the MIT campus police there, well we called the police to two away a car which was obstructing our way and we could not get out of the parking spot. We drove through the Harvard square and I fell in love with that place. I even asked M if fancies the idea of sending me to the B-School there. Well weather I manage to get admission in the course or not is debatable but what’s the harm in knowing M’s opinion, and turns out he is too confident that my application will find its way to the nearest shredding machine in the shortest possible time.

We came back home, and ate dinner and called it a day. Sunday morning we all woke up after 8 and ate a relaxed breakfast followed by yummy cake which you can see here . OMG, how could I miss out talking about the cake. In a long time I ate such yummy cake. You can find the picture here. M kept on saying no for the cake and he wont stop eating once I gave him one bite. That man is full of contradictions I tell you. After we stuffed our faces it was time to explore Boston. We agreed on going to White Horse beach, where you could enjoy some water sports like Jet Skiing, mini vice, boating etc…The moment we reached the parking spot it stared raining. We decided to eat lunch and then come back. So we once again headed to the only Indian restaurant there to stuff our faces. God these Buffets. Swathi’s husband Kishore was surprised to see that I started my meal with the desert. After lunch we browsed through the antiques shop and then went to the water front. After a lot of thinking we took a mini vice and swathi & kishore rented a Jet Ski. M got all excited the moment we stepped into the mini vice and he started speeding. I had a tough time controlling. I was totally freaked out and he got an earful. Booboo did not cry but he did not enjoy it either. The moment we came back a cop was waiting for us and he gave us a speeding ticket. I was a little irritated with the whole thing and gave the cops little small talk.

We drove back home, drank some good warm coffee and one more round of cake, fed booboo dinner and started our drive back home.

There is a teddy bear in Swathi’s house which is really huge and booboo fell in love with it and wanted to carry it all over the house. After he came back he wanted to know where baby (the teddy bear) went. I need to get him one. All together it was a fun trip. Swathi and her husband are friendly and warm people, it feels good to be in their company. Thanks swathi for having us and letting us eat all your cake. I am already looking forward to your trip (which is still not decided when). Come here soon.
