All I can say is that life is always fun!! When you think of the moments you’ve captured and the good times you had with your best buddies it makes you smile. These are best moments of life. We were walking in Central Park and my friend actually paid $30 and got one like the girl in the picture here. It’s amazing how these people finish drawing the picture in mere 20 – 30 min. You see …Life is exciting and fun.

On the Wednesday morning of October 7, 2009 I was sitting in my living room and chilling out having coffee. I heard these helicopter noise and I looked through the window to see two Black Hawk Choppers are flying very low heading towards the US Naval Air Station, Joint Reserve Base, New Orleans which is 10 min drive from my apt. It was interesting to look at these choppers very closely.

The New Orleans base has the following units

* Fourth Marine Aircraft Wing
* Marine Air Group 42 DET C
* Patrol Squadron 94
* Strike Fighter Squadron 204
* 159th Tactical Fighter Group (LAANG)
* 159th Fighter Wing
* 926th Tactical Fighter Wing (AFRES)
* USCG Air Station New Orleans
* NCTAMS LANT Det New Orleans

Central Park is a large public, urban park that occupies over a square mile in the heart of Manhattan in New York City. Central Park was opened in 1859, completed in 1873. The park appearance in many movies and television shows has made it famous. The park was designed by landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted and architect Calvert Vaux, who went on to collaborate on Brooklyn’s Prospect Park. Central Park has been a National Historic Landmark since 1963. Today it has become an attraction for bird watchers, here you can find 200 species of birds regularly.

Niagara @ Nights

Sekhar — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 07:54:17 +0000

Every evening beginning at dusk the Falls are lit in the colours of the rainbow – don’t miss the unmatched beauty of the Falls at night! The Falls are illuminated nightly until at least 10 p.m. January through April and until midnight the rest of the year. I was there at the end of June and took these lovely pictures at around 11.30 pm in the night. It was amazing and one of the best views i’ve ever seen and even today, if I close my eyes I can see the picture of the falls infront of my eyes.

Niagara Falls !

The word “Niagara” is derived from the Iroquois Indian word “Onguiaahra”
meaning “the strait”. The Falls make a tremendous sound as the water goes over and lands at the bottom. I took this picture when i was riding on the boat from the American side of the Niagara falls. It turned out to be a lovely picture over all. One interesting fact that I found out is that twenty percent of the worlds freshwater lies in the Great Lakes, and most flows over Niagara Falls. Interesting Right??

Beauty of Niagara Falls

The Niagara Falls are the waterfalls on the Niagara River, straddling the international border between the Canadian province of Ontario and the U.S. state of New York. Niagara Falls is composed of two major sections separated by Goat Island: Horseshoe Falls, the majority of which lies on the Canadian side of the border, and American Falls on the American side. The smaller Bridal Veil Falls are also located on the American side, separated from the main falls by Luna Island. The falls are 17 miles (27 km) north-northwest of Buffalo, New York and 75 miles (120 km) south-southeast of Toronto, Ontario, between the twin cities of Niagara Falls, Ontario, and Niagara Falls, New York.

As we walk on a small path across these mountains. Here comes a lovely glacier piece, it was so lovely with the background of the valley of flowers. In fact, we were trekking on August 15, 2009, which is like end of the summer in the Himalayan region, hence most of the ice is already melted.
