Ooh Aah Point!!!

Its been a while since I last wrote... I have been busy...busy for nothing...:) Well I wanted to talk about our small hike in Grand Canyon to Ooh- Aah Point. But was waiting to get the original copies of the photographs(remember we forgot our camera)..:P We must have met our frens a hundred time but just forget to get the snaps... So I am going ahead with our Picasa download..:D These snaps were clicked by our frens Deepak n Amruta. They just celebrated 6 month anniversary of their marriage...:)... If you have been to Grand Canyon, you know that words fail to describe and pictures don't do justice. And Ooh-Aah point just consolidates the fact. Ooh-Aah Point is on the south Kaibab Trail. South Kaibab Trail is considered one of the most beautiful trail on the South Rim of Grand Canyon. Its about 7.5 miles to Bright Angel Campground, which is at bottom of canyon. If you think that its only 7 miles just keep the fact in mind that there is around 5000 ft elevation...:P For

Lake Tapps

The weather in Seattle has been awesomely good..:) So we took advantage of that n planned a barbecue. We went to Lake Tapps for a picnic cum barbecue. It was a beautiful day to be outside... If you have few hours to spare, Lake Tapps is the place to be... Unlike the popular Green Lake this place is quiet n not so crowded. N if the weather gods are kind you'll see the magnificent view of Mt. Rainier. The sun shone in all its glory and it was beautiful. n we ate, n ate n ate...I dont think we ever stopped munching...:P  This little guy was fun to watch...:)  By the time we were ready to leave, clouds had covered Rainier. i'll leave you on that beautiful sight. Hope you all hv a wonderful week ahead..

A new phone and Long Weekend!!!

So my dearest hubby gifted me a new phone..a Samsung Galaxy S4.. It was quite a surprise..a big one..a 5.3 inch big one....:) I was so sick of my old phone ~ was slow, the battery died every 5 hours, hanged up between calls n what not..:P..So when I got this one I was in awe for a while. I was really afraid to use it..but was forced to use it this May long weekend... We, rather I forgot our camera in the car and realized it only after reaching airport..:P I know what you are thinking..:P Its unsettling if you dont have a Camera in your hand and you are visiting beautiful places. This time its was Grand Canyon - Zion - Death Valley..with Las Vegas thrown in for good measures..:) Here my 13 mp camera came in handy..:P...I took some time to get hang of it but it was worth it..So here are the few snaps taken from my Samsung Galaxy S4...Lemme know how u find the captures...  We found these @ Phoenix Airport. I didn't knew they even existed now...  Wanna make a guess
