Sprint of 2011 towards 2012!

An apt line for the year 2011, Wherever I lay my Hat , thats my Home. ! Travel bug hit Us and How!!!! Notwithstanding ofcourse, the arrival of friends and family, and our regular lunches & dinners with all our loved ones ! An impetuous sprint through the year, which will make even the best Rollercoaster & Marathon, seems arid!

A pre birthday celebration, began with sun soaked Goa to being beachbums at Menorca , Spain. Winter break at Indore & a quick trip to Dubai by Dad followed by the small and totally out of control chaotic bunch of 5 & 1 stable Patnaik family member to China, Macau & HongKong. Visit to the scenic Cotswold region, a weekend at Cardiff, South Wales with the most amazing culinary delight of Fish & Chips at Barry Island , in our sojourn at London! Dad takes off to US of A, for a solo break! Back home & a mega quick trip to Delhi & IHM Aurangabad with a 2nd impromptu jaunt at Indore! Phewwwwww...... I definitely need another holiday asap to survive this crazy onslaught of being on the Move! J)))))

Difficult to name everyone we met , partied with , the masti & badmashi & suffice to say , everyone who was a part of this travel/year with me has seen the happenings as photographic memories on FB (did miss out on capturing a few moments though, which is next years agenda!!) & as writing on the travel Blog!! Been a perfect amalgamation of family & friends .... new, old & vintage! Time, when Surprises never failed to Surprise me !

This year,  the unimaginable, showed its existence. Where, a line for Life held True...... Dear Life , When I said "Can my day get any Worse ", it was a rhetorical question, not a challenge. However, When I said " Can my day get any Better", you answered with abundance & indulgence !  

One has lived every Moment to the optimum & I truly have no words to express the heartfelt warmth, Care & Love , towards each and everyone who was a part of this year , known & unknown, signifying the Essence of Living Life to the Fullest !

2011's end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, cruising headlong into 2012 ,with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us. Wish you all another astounding year  , may all your Dreams come true ( the realistic one's that is !! J)). Cheers to Life .......... to Love, Peace, Health & Happiness engulfed in Laughter!

And before I sign off , cant help but mention this quote which is so close to my heart!! Ahem!!! People sometimes get crazier as they get older. I can just be weird whenever I want, and there's the freedom of not caring what people think.     - Candice Bergen

God Bless ...
