Though it looks cool, it takes time to adjust in these smaller planes. These are unstable (compare to typical cross continent passenger one) and windy Seattle makes it more interesting( read as scary!).

Overall I enjoyed the flight with my family. Some more pics here.

I have bought this Schwinn’s Broadway hybrid bike which is much advanced than what I used to ride in India ( almost 10 years back in college days).

Its fun so far! riding 4 miles uphill to office and another 4 miles back home.

They have recreated a village called pioneer village behind the museum building, which is so awesome. This village has a river in the background, train rail, a water wheel and lots of cabins representing various entities in the village like (barber shop, groceries, saloon…..) interestingly all of them have been recreated using the ‘original’ items they found within the 30 miles radius of museum.

There are just so many other things to see there, an vintage tractor which has Fordson engraved on it, which I am guessing is an old name of FORD motors. They had some other motored vehicles , a jeep which has GMC on it for General Motors I believe. Its amazing to know that how old these companies are.

They had a section on the various rock structures, crystal formations, which I studied as part of my bachelor degree for sometime. Its so easy to understand things when you actually see it , rather than seeing things just in the lab.

Other thing which caught my eye is a place where they have old collectible related to Scouts dating back to 1900’s. Why this is close to me? because I have served as a boy scout back in India when I was kid for around 8 years. I even got awarded by President of India for my services.

I am planning to visit this place and around more again, because we think there is just so much too see around. Must visit place if you are planning to go towards Leavenworth, which i think itself is must visit place if you are in Seattle.

Good sample presentation to raise funds.

I am all ready to sign up for beta testing

Must watch

This is me at Westin Resort at Whistler, Canada. In the background what you can see is Snow claded Black Comb mountain.

I am at three week tour to Redmond, USA which includes a short fun trip at Whislter- a destination for Winter Olympic 2010.

It was fun driving Cadillac DTS from Redmond to Whistler. I went for hiking up to the base-2 skiing point with my friends Rajat and Kannan, without any special gears, saw some black beers on the way, and took a ride on & back in chilling/thrilling rope chairs.

Woooo!!!

playtime

This weekend I played marathon rounds (some 5 hours) of TransAmerica an addictive board game with my wife Vibha.

It was fun but sad that I lost most of the rounds to Vibha .
