Our two year Anniversary Celebration at the resort

2years of blissful marriage and still counting. It was a lucky day for both of us and the climate was the proof. It was dawn and visiting the temple that in a way was the reason of our bonding was in our priority list. So we drove through an hour long drive on the highway and it was raining cats and dogs. Seemed like the clouds were emptying their stocks so that we have a dry pleasant day ahead. Thats what happened. We reached the temple and after we did our prayers no showers were seen. On the way to the resort we were marveled by the outstanding paintings of mother nature. How I wanted to behold each moment but every other scene seemed to be overwhelming. I was bitting and sharing chunk of flavored chocolate delicacies that my husband got me out of surprise.

We reached the Silent Hill Resort at 9:30 and had our breakfast. The resort is a water-park cum amusement park. It has some 11-12 water rides that one can enjoy with loud music. A rain dance floor and a pool will water shower. A mini train and some kids play area were a few things that we thought to sidestep. There are some resting areas with ceiling fan and some typical village cane beds. Also a patch for some interesting swings made up of rubber tyre. We bought a locker to keep some handy stuffs we got along and rested on the beds for some time. I was scanning through the new ipod touch and took a nap for a while.

The noise of a loud music woke us up and we were all ready in our swim suits with sunscreen over our body to dive into the fun zone. There was a tube ride that scared me like hell. My husband weighs some 70kg and I am 15kgs less than him. The tube was a two person ride so everytime we took that ride I was completely droned under the water in a lightening speed. I like the sleep and dash ride. One of the ride had lots of loops so that freaked us as well.

Then we went to the pool with water shover and took it as a massage over our back. I also enjoyed rain dancing with my husband with the latest hit music played on.

After some 2 hours of fun, the rides were put on a halt for lunch break. A typical Gujarati thali was waiting to be attacked on. Yummy I loved that I got home cooked food. Back in the resting area, we chatted about everything that came into our minds. I love this part of our twosomes. How laid back we were and enjoyed being that! We then went for the rides again but this time we got out fast. Got a shower and took chai, ice gola to the lake side gazebo. We were nostalgic about the day two years back and felt happy that destiny got us together.

Relaxing at the lake facing Gazebo

Where else could we go to spend some peaceful time with each other and avoid some typical calls to be attended and avoid doubtable greetings to be appreciated.

We came back and had a romantic candle light dinner in the city's elegant hotel. Thats how we spend the most unforgettable day in another memorable way!

A weekend at a Farmhouse

During the extra-long lockdown, we had an opportunity to visit one of our family’s farmhouse. 3 hours from our home, somewhere in the fog city of igatpuri lay this amazing nature rescue. Paddy fields The place was mesmerizing with hills and paddy farms surrounding us. The early morning sun shone right in front of the verandah that our room was attached to. It was foggy every morning and clouds all day long so never did we feel the October heat. We hardly felt like staying in our luxurious rooms. I being a nature lover, enjoyed roaming around the fields, the flowering shrubs that beautified the paths and a machan to overlook till your eyesight would reach.  Everyday view The sleeping beauty mountain The mountain, the river, the fields, the well, the hand pump, the insects, the flowers and the cattle were the topic of learning for my homeschooled kid. He had a friend to accompany him all day long. She was a year older than him, yet they both did compliment each other in many ways. W...

Pawna lakeside camping (Day 1)

Homeschool experience for our kid led us to understand the importance of small meaningful trips in the wild. We had been staying in a tent that had attached bathroom in the midst of a dessert during our Rajasthan trip but this one was such a raw experience. We were done with our morning routine and headed to lonavala at around 11. Listening to old songs that i love chorusing along, we reached Kailash Parbat for a lunch hault. H enjoyed homemade puranpoli that his granny made. At Kailash Parbat The weather was cold enough and H was happy to find a baby next table to play with. From here our journey was full of rough roads and yet we enjoyed looking at the scenes it had to offer. Farmer with his bullocks A farmer was ploughing his land which caught baby H's eyes. He realized we have reached another side of the world already. The tropical flowers and shrubs that H kept visiting were part of his love for colors.

Questions for a homeschooling mom

I was at the club where my son goes to learn skating. Lady: Hows his homeschooling going on? Me: Great Lady: So what do you teach him? Me: Depends on the concept we pick Lady: He must be knowing the names of the states in India Me: (In a surprise, for her being so direct) ahh.. No Lady: hmm After some silence she shouts at her child who is skating along Lady: Watch out. (With an impulse, she addresses me about her kid) She never focuses on herself. All the time she wants to see what others are doing Me: (Laughing in my mind) I had gone to meet a few girl friends at the park with our respective kids When I was interacting with the kids I overhear a conversation GF1: Have you seen her how she talks to her son GF2: Ya she is so calm GF1: You see that's why her son is like this. He won't be strong enough for the real world. After a while GF2: Urvi, you should stay with these kids for a few days... so they will learn to behave I was a bit confused as I didn...
