Weekendss... ahhh....

Saturday went to Leeds castle, canterbury and Dover..... with very entertaining people from my office.... canterbury cathedral and town are so quaint.... cobbled streets and all that jazz..... definitely worth a visit.... dover was not as much as I expected but had to see it.... Leeds castle... well.. apart from the frozen lake I didnt find anything that justifies the 'prettiest castle in the world ' tag... I can find a dozen havelis in Tamil Nadu that better suits that tag..... we were lucky in that the weather was a 'warm' 9 degrees and the sun was shining brightly....

Sunday was spent watching bollywood movie with desis followed by desi dinner.... both awesome... the movie was unusually refreshing... band bajaa baraat.... it was quite progressive in that the woman lead actually wants a career and does not want to be just a 'mummy'... and her father is completely supportive... I thot that was reflective of what is happening in Indian society now... ofcourse large parts still remain in the dark ages but still things are changing.....

the cold is apparently going to get bitter in the coming days.... look forward to India actually...
