Colorado springs .. Place to be!!
Its so beautiful.. mountains, valleys... this was the first time I saw mountains.. gee well I was meeting my siter after 6 months almost and she seemed to loose a lot of weight, well maybe I compared her to lakshmi lol..!!
The 3 days trip started on friday dumma frm office.. Akka picked us frm airport after a lot of confusing directions to lakshmi atlast we found her!! ate Sub on the went home, she was wrking frm home so did not do much. Evening ko uska ghar shift kia thoda sa and shopping kia.
Saturday was the adventure time went to ZOO ( have to visit some khas species) it was fun.Didi was driving all the time well should say she did a pretty good job with that I was a scared rat when I had to drive my car for a month almost. Colorado springs is quite a scary place for driving. I saw so many accidents on the way baap re. We teamed up with didi'f fren Ratish and his family for Mountain zoo. then went to Pikes Peak man it was awsome.. it was like a dream. we went on the top of the mountain and lo! it was snowing im May!! cant believe it. It was amazing from the top. too much fun!! from there Seven Falls in the night. Its a series of 7 falls of a same stream. Well it was million times better than Ruby falls lol. I think i'll post some pics later in this post. we came home late and dinner was light. lakshmi wanted to go shopping and was nagging about it all the day huh and she says she is grown up bah!
Sunday was even better ( no we did not go to shopping today too!! poor lakshmi) we went to rafting on Arkansas river in the morning. it took till late afternoon .Then went on Royal George rail a 24-mile journey through the 1,000 foot deep Royal Gorge, alongside the raging Arkansas River it is a very beautiful route. Next stop was Royal George Bridge and park we walked across the Royal George bridge for some more adventure for sky coaster. I was scared to death to try it and gave a hard time to ppl there but after 2 swings 1,200 feet above the Arkansas River, it was damn thrilling, went on a ariel tram Gliding more than 1,100 feet above the canyon floor is the world's longest single-span Aerial Tram, then on the world's steepest Incline Railway (45 degree slope) is still considered one of the most difficult structures ever built . Was so tired and amazed end of the day!
Monday was a slow day got up late did some timepass at home. Moved some of didi's stuff to her new home. and went to Pirates -3 and came home with "I love Jonny Depp" mania lol .. Went to shopping ( wallmart okay!! some gen stuff for didi's home not shopping shopping) had to pack and get back to Philly... cont...
