31th Jul: Relaxed pace..

Today has truly been our first official shopping day!!! Yipeeeeeeee !!! And actually managed to spot some stuff I actually liked …. Methinks , I need another shopping binge like today’s & I shall be fine!!! (Wonder how much overdraft I can manage without giving Dad a minor attack!! J )

Last couple of day’s, have been totally relaxed & even paced!

Two movies, a play & walk around another lovely garden.

Harry Potter, a movie that once again shows how abstract your mind can think. The visions, concepts, story that your mind is capable of extracting. Like I say … ‘It’s all in the Mind’. The mind can sure take you to ‘places you have never gone before!!’ ;-) The Mind, a creative genius!!!

And watching Harry Potter, loved the few lines & the essence that came up….. When we care too much, we tend to loose that much more. However, when we loose something, it shall come back to us, but not in the way we expect it to…. & when we try harder to do something right, it might backfire, but atleast you have something worth fighting for!!!!

Do you wanna Partner … Do you wanna Partner…… Kya sahi movie hai ….. no head no tail … double meaning to every other line … complete copy of Hitch … but even so , we all died laughing … total tapori & to be fair , one does need some gray matter , to come up with the one liners….. saab ke baas ki baat nahin hai!!! Rachna, you were right … a complete stress buster & I did think of you!!!

We have done it often enough & did it again. Walked into Blue Lagoon, a Thai place, at Haymarket. Told them we had exactly 45 minutes to have our meal & see the play. Amazing service, tasty food & we were through with dinner in 40 minutes!!! The play, The Phantom of the Opera. Another breathtaking musical. The sets are fascinating, the clothes so vibrant, the voices …. Wow ….. from the highest pitch to the lowest & softest tone. Another must see play for all you theatre buffs!!!

PS: Always , always make sure you try to get seat in the Stall & preferably in the centre. If stalls full up, then just go one level higher, never more, the vision is not the best after that!!

Kew Gardens, a Botanical Bonanza. Another place, where you need to spend the entire day. Be ready for loads of walking if you want to see & discover, the various attractions. Special place for kids to chill & things that they can do at the garden. And for all you non-walkers, there is a Bus that moves around from one place to another, where you can hop on & hop off!!!

Highlight: The Chilli section at the Waterlily glasshouse with a variety of Black colour chilli!!! Paisa wasool this was for me …. Considering there is an entrance fee!!!

I havent read any Harry Potter book, but from what I have read about them, they is actually deeply symbolic & full of meaning. They are all coded, & are very profound.
The Phantom of the Opera!That's Now THAT'S what I call cool, leisure, or recreation, or FUN.
Have a great time. QUALITY time. Great. Don't stop work on the blog. Just continue with it. You are brilliant.
