Joydeep’s home is on the highest level of Sammamish. This place with its winding roads, the mountains, the forest land … take’s me to Kashmir, Dharamshala, Mahabaleshwar … & the climate is just like Delhi in the winter’s!!
We walk across to the park which has a lovely lake, where the scenic beauty could be anywhere in one of our hill stations, except for the splash of colours.
Drive around this part of Seattle & enjoy the beauty this place has to offer. Go to these home’s where they have a view to Kill …. Wonder what kind of premium they have to pay to live in these house’s!!
The sun is not out to it prime, what else does one expect in the month of October , it isn’t July!!! And Joydeep is most upset because of this, since he so wants for us to see all the mountain’s that surround Seattle!!! Including Mt.Rainier, which is also called the Ghost mountain by the native american’s, as this mountain has a tendency of suddenly looming in front of you, when you least expect it to, specially when it is not a sunny bright day!!!
It’s spending time with the kid’s & Madhu, while Joydeep, has us in splits with his episodes on how adjusting to the Amrikan ways took him a while!!! The cool dude Bambaiya kid .. who knew it all … and still fell prey to quite a few things ….like filling Gas on your own…. Sandwiches .. which were not the types we were use to .. the square bread walla .. but Subways … which were a foot long ….Hilarious… which also included his episode’s of Rourkela Engg College, on ragging , his days being the senior….. some walk down memory lane it was!!!
Highlight … the best Starbucks Latte is here … although .. even if you say, without sugar, there is still sugar coz the cream used for latte has sugar premixed … so .. if one wants coffee without sugar .. Caffe Latte is definitely not an option!!!
Facts: Seattle is the birth place of Bill Gates & Microsoft ( he has completely changed this city), Starbucks, Amazon, Boeing, to name a few ….. the diversity is what makes this city!!!
