One of those nights when the snow makes everything feel beautiful! One of the things I love about the northeast!

Between x-mases

A lot has happened between this Christmas and last and yet nothing changed. I am more peaceful as I can see where life is heading now but I am restless too as the details are missing. I found the love of my life, I let go of a friend. I graduated with a PhD, I don’t yet have a job. I feel accomplished but I can’t seem to find my confidence. I am riding through a tough part of life, barely making through without breaking down and holding on to the positives and yet I think on the average pushing my life in the right direction and trying not to loose sight of what is really important. Here’s to the slow but steady progress of life!

Cheer up flowers

Be thankful that despite all the set backs there is someone who brings you flowers to cheer you up!

Polar Caves, NH

The possibility of a hurricane was a major roadblock to some of our more adventurous plans this weekend. We went to polar caves instead which was quite a treat.

entrance of polar caves , which apparently have something to do with the polar bears

A giant chair, which I had a difficulty getting on to. One of the passerby who was generous to take this picture decided to lift me up and put me on the chair which gave us all some laughs

A short walk to the caves houses some wildlife native to the area:

And finally the caves. There are 9 caves in total which are all quite challenging and not for you if you are not in the best of your health, have week knees, or are pregnant. Some of the caves definitely need some squeezing into and aptly named lemon squeeze, orange crush and fatman’s misery. The lemon squeeze and the Devils turnpike were the most challenging caves but nothing an 8-year old cannot do and certainly a lot of fun!

All in all not a bad way to spend a clouded out Sunday afternoon!

Plymouth May’Flowers’

A visit to the Plymouth Plantation

I’ve been living in the USA for over five years now and it’s about time I visited this historical re-enactment of the pilgrims landing at the Cape on the Mayflower and settling in Plymouth. Plymouth Plantation constitutes three sites – the native american’s (Wampanoag) homesite, the pilgrim village and restored Mayflower – 2. Here are some snaps from the plantation as well as some awesome sites at Plymouth.
