Happy birthday

Nice stuff....

This is true ....There are certain events which help you to find yourself

San Antonio .....Perfect

Visit of San Antonio on 25-26th Nov was perfect ! I wish that we can celebrate Guddu's B'day in same way every year.

We started with our navigator Aunty. Yes we call her Aunt ....Why ? Bahut gussa aata hai usko ....Thodi thodi time par boloti hai ki take right/left ....Par haan Aunty ke karan we reached San Antonio and came back easily.

Yes you are right ...its a GPS system.







So now we need not to worry about the directions , we started 300 miles journey around 7-7.30 AM on 25th Nov.

We reached San Antonio around 1-1.30 .....and started enjoying... Shamu / Viva and all the rides were fun and life time experience one should have.

"Believe"

"Believe," an entirely new, visually stunning Shamu show takes you on a sensational, breathtaking journey of curiosity and wonder. This captivating, dramatic show is presented in a completely enhanced Shamu Theater and features new music, video and animal behaviors. The area includes a new roof, set pieces, sound system and lights and an additional point-of-view camera that offers an overhead view of the action in the water. During the high-energy water sessions, guests seated in the first 14 rows must be prepared to become splash victims! An interactive Web site www.Shamu.com highlights the breathtaking displays of grace and beauty during "Believe."

"Viva!"

The White Whale and Dolphin Stadium comes alive with the revolutionary "Viva!" show. This colorful production features professional high divers, aerialists and synchronized swimmers performing with the acrobats of the sea, Pacific white-sided dolphins and beautiful beluga whales, all against a dramatic backdrop of water screens, waterfalls and fountains. It's the first of its kind at any SeaWorld Adventure Park.

In evening we went to Chuck E. Nice concept and that was the best part where we all enjoyed , Guddu specially ...

Walk through the 22,000-gallon (83,280 l) tunnel to experience a panoramic view of reef life. Many animals found at the top of the food chain can be seen in the Predators exhibit. Ten 2,000-gallon (7,571 l) displays present marine life from around the world - Palau, Southern Australia, Lord Howe Island, Solomon Islands, Fiji, Bahamas, British Columbia, Sri Lanka, Indonesia and Japan. Representing the waters of four continents, three oceans and various seas, the aquarium gives a glimpse of the underwater world.

CRAZY STUFF .......

this is watsup... the worst traffic you could say... but see how the traffic keeps moving without an accident.........

Carfax

Their are certain things which are good in USA , one is carfax where you can check the car history. Go to carfax.com and check it out. My account is valid till 11/07/2006 , So if you want to use for personal use please let me know the VIN number and I will provide you the history (No commercial involved)

I have selected my car using carfax , here is picture of my car (Elantra)

Plano ......

Finally I am back on my blog , Today I was feeling like writing something so here I am and doing QWERTY on my keyboard. I am in Dallas now a days and its been 14 days and things are still not under control. Life is tough as compare to Europe and India, atleast for initial month or so ..... There is no public transport , Ok I can survive without it if they have way for pedestrians but they even don't have that. My son shall soon start his school here ! I think after car life will become more easy. This place requires initial time , Office is also cool ....

India shining

Last Saturday we went to CP and got a change to board on Indian Metro. It was amazing experience to see India growing and becoming part of this growth. I have been to London Metro , believe me Delhi metro is better than the London one. I am waiting metro to reach Gurgaon. At one side the young generation is striving hard to make India shine and other side the politicians is cooking their food on cast and religion.

Direct post from MS word

Its really amazing , Just write in word doc and post it on blog. But by doing so are we opening one more hole for spyware ?

Wi-Fi

Finally I am able to setup Wi-Fi network @ my home. Its really amazing , I am posting this using the Wi-Fi connectivity. Now I need to make it more secure.

True Patriot .....

Yeterday I watched "Rang De Basanti" ,one of the best movie I have ever seen. We all need to think what we can do for our country.

"Koi bhi desh perfect nahi hota , but hum koshish to kar sakte hain usko perfect banane ki."

It is really a feeling of fulfilment when you watch little angels dancing and doing play.

Why the Name Bug in SW ... Quiet Interesting

Here is the info how the name "Bug" used in Software Bug: A computer bug is an error or defect in computer hardware or software that causes the computer or the computer program to malfunction.




Do you know why defects in computer hardware/software are called as "Bug"?

Here goes the answer ->

The first computer bug is said to have been a moth that was found squashed between the points of an electromechanical relay in the Mark II computer in 1945. This moth caused the entire computer to shut down. When the moth was removed, it was affixed to the computer's log with a scribbled note that read, "First actual case of bug being found." When the computer operators removed the moth, they claimed to have "debugged" the computer, thus introducing the term "debugging a computer program." From then onwards, all software programming defects are also termed as "Bugs" By the way, this first bug is now housed in the National Museum of American History at the Smithsonian.

Team Ferrari visited Vodafone Newbury ...

Michael Schumaker and his ferrari team visited Vodafone HQ , Due to work we missed that but for all of you here are few images

Swiss day 1 ......

Its been ages , I was thinking of posting this .... finally I am starting this from day one

=========================================
27th May – We wake up early morning 2:30 due to our very knowledgeable driver (Mr. Fatik) , He told that it will take 2-2:30 Hrs to reach Luton Airport from Newbury. So we thought that we should start at 4 o’clock to reach there in time to catch flight to Switzerland at 7 o’clock.

Do you know the time when we reached Luton airport? It was 5 o’clock.

Flight experience was good until we lost stroller of my Son at Basal airport. We waited for an hour, waiting for stroller. That first impression was not good and temperature was also high. The image of Switzerland in my mind was exactly opposite to what we saw and experienced in Basel.

We took 50 number bus from Basal Airport to Railway station (Bhenhof) and at Railway station it was all German it took long to get a Swiss pass.

Basal to Bern – OK
Bern to Interlaken – Thun lake was amazing , View of monntain was cool .... Changed the first impression which Basal gave us.

Interlaken to Lauterbrunen : River along with train line was good.
Lauterbrunen to Trummelbach: It was good , very peaceful area.
