I like Emirates. I have flown with them twice, once in 2002 and the other in November 2009. But could not resist posting this one. I wonder how I managed to click ‘Lax and …’ instead of relax and …’ I took this picture at the Manchester airport. And while I am talking of the…
A Disciplined Lot!
I was quite fascinated to see this row of sea gulls at the promenade at Morecambe. I feel I shook my hand while taking this picture and also did not take more than one. What a pity.
Friday Flowers- Orchids
Clicked this one at Lancaster on a cold November day, wonder how they managed to grow it!
Sky Watch Friday- Sunset
I often post sunsets for the Skywatch because I seldom get up early enough to catch the sunrise! For more pictures from around the world visit Skywatch Friday.
Evening Sky Today

The Best Western Royal King’s ArmS at Lancaster, UK

I found all of them quite good value for money (all were official visits so I was anyway not paying for the stay). The Best Western King’s Arms hotel is conveniently located in the…
What Does my Flight Cost?
On all my trips to UK I never booked my air ticket. On a whim I decided to see how much my ticket would cost. I have taken flights on Jet, Virgin, BA and most recently Emirates but the Emirates flight was to Manchester. I did a search on Makemytrip and I can see that…
Chat Time!
I took this picture the last time I was in Chandigarh. In fact the last visit to Chandigarh was my first time inside a court room too. I had never been inside a court before. This time we were appearing towards completing the legal procedures towards the adoption of our daughter. It takes more than…
