If you had told me – thirty seven years back – that in a future world this classmate of mine from Computer Science days in IIT Madras and I will be riding a boat some day, there would have been no way in God’s green earth that I would have believed you. And then, after a moment of thought, I might have asked you – “Will I be above ‘C’-level?” (ha ha). We were nothing in those engineering days if not full of PJs (poor jokes ~ groaners).

Friends from kindergarten days, these four are now headed in different directions to different colleges. Nikita is the one moving furthest away. Dorm move in time is coming up!!

With Rupak and Jasmine.

Weather gods were kind today. We did not face the thunderstorms that were predicted last night. Good lunch at Fish Tales and even better conversations!!

You cannot get him to walk down the jetty (the floating suspension scares him) but the moment the boat starts moving, he goes back to his favorite pastime – sleeping!
