I was carrying my laptop, but I prefer writing on the paper, its more romantic. Besides when I am in the window seat, moving two other fellas out and wrestling with a heavy cabin baggage, and apologizing before I move back in, would have really killed all the spontaneous thoughts I felt like writing at the moment. So I just took out my e-ticket (which always comes in handy for writing) and scribbled pages and pages of it.
Don't worry I am not gonna put five and a half A4 size pages of scribble in this post - c'mon it is personal stuff!!! Besides you readers can be spared the trouble.Lets just stick to this portion then :-
SF did not like me much, and as a matter of fact the feelings were entirely mutual. For reasons I would rather not get into the details of, I wished I could spend all my time down the sunnier south. But if only life was every wish come true . . .
(coz even though it gives some, it applies pre-conditions on others and the largest share it completely ignores, which in my right mind I am rather thankful of, but we are talking about wishes here, so what the hell),
...which it is not, I anyways divided my time - unequally and gladly giving my favourite place the larger share - between the north and south of California.
It (USA) wasn't all that impressive at the first glance, and one reason could be that I've seen a lot of those things which are typically though of as a prerogative of the developed nations in some other parts of the world I've had a chance to visit before, and those are some of the most obvious things strikingly different from India. Secondly, we are absolutely getting there in this country. U name it and we have it . . .
Nevertheless, for me, home is where my heart is.
It is the people who make or break the experience of a place for me. And that's why I am so choosy about who I be with, and have such partial opinions of the places I've had a good time at.
In a nutshell, it was a great trip . . . . and this is the all the travelogue I ll ever write.
P.S. It was technically three, and if u really go by the zip codes, they will be a lot more.
