U & us in USA




 Vidhu had a wonderful whirwind trip to the USA where she discovered plenty of new things and more importantly lots of new friends and relationships that would last a lifetime. She spent almost two weeks at her Uncle's place in San Francisco - easily the best city to live in the US (IMHO). There we go to get started - the first evening started off with a stroll to the neighbourhood park to stretch our legs after a long journey :



And they walked into the twilight



And bonded together - brothers in arms
The sultan of swing
Winding up with delicious channa/chapathi

 





I am comforable here 


Mark waugh's lazy elegance

I seem to love it here


Coming from a scorched India, the pleasant weather and the beautiful twilight set the stage for what would be an awesome fortnight of fun to follow.

Next up was a short city tour with a lunch at Chipotle  - Vidhu did enjoy the day out looking relaxed in her pink dress. We did a round of window shopping at Macy's and had coffee and snacks at the Westfield mall :

Chipotle rocks !

Healthy eating for a healthy touring !

I am ready for the day !



A peck a day..




That's the way the cookie crumbles


The day was well spent with Vidhu sleeping through the journey back and refreshing herself.  After another relaxed day, we headed out with Dwarark and Divya for three days of fun to follow at LA. The drive was awesome and we checked into Radisson and fell into a deep slumber to equip ourself for the next day ahead at Disney :


Who is the brightest of them all ?
Like a diamond in the sky..




Vidhu finished her first roller coaster ride effortlessly on Divya's lap. We also went for a wonderful water cruise that took us on a tour around the world in a semi-lit waterway. We saw Alice in wonderland, had a mad hat tea party to boot !

Twin engines roaring into Disney

oh.. ok. ok.you are precious too !

Darsh in his quiet, inimitable style was an absolute delightie - ice cream sandwich with his face never betraying any discomfort. Good, fabulous rides all in a day's work...



That's what we did..
