New Orleans 03/14/10

I haven't been able to post lately. I have been travelling quite a lot these days for my work. One of my latest visits to New Orleans was a wonderful experience. New Orleans is really a unique city in America. I was amazed to learn and experience New Orleans' cuisine, music and Spanish architecture.

On my arrival, I had the opportuntity to meet my long lost friend Aneesha. We met after 10 years! We studied science together back home in India at Jai Hind College. I had no idea it would take so long for our paths to cross after graduation. We were thrilled to see each other and could not stop smiling and exchanging compliments. Aneesha, being local to New Orleans took me around the neighborhood. It was wonderful to have, Timsy (Aneesha's roomie) accompany us to explore New Orleans.

It was bright and sunny when we started walking from my hotel. Being from northeast, I was totally enjoying the warm weather of New Orleans. We went to downtown French Quarters, Bourbon street, Canal steet and Decatur. We dined at an italian restuarant followed by Cafe Du Monde's coffee and beignets:) We shopped some souvenirs and gifts and returned back full of joy and memories for our future.Thanks Aneesha for the wonderful pendant and a memorable evening spent in New Orleans.

Russellville, Kentucky visit Jan 2010

I was on a business visit to a small town Russellville, in Kentucky. This town is like a two hour drive from Nashville airport, TN. Being new in the area, I was given a warm welcome by the doctor and his staff. Kentucky is known for its blueglass music, tobacco farms and throughbred horses.
Steve was sweet enough to play the banjo and it gave me a whole new experience of the culture associated in that little town. Debby cooked Mediterranean food and we all relished it! Some memories which will be associated with me for the rest of my life.

Its always wonderful to meet such good people who touch your lives.
Thank you guys and I hope you see you all again:)
