Palace Of Illusion

I came to Redmond 4 years ago just after finishing my college. I joined my first job and started my independent life. I learnt all real life fundaes, started taking decisions by my own, started finding rules of my life, started managing my own finances etc. It is like I found my own small world in this evergreen state.

I met Abhas, got married and started my married life here. We set up or little home. I do not know, when do I started feeling more homely here than in Indore.

Now, while going back, I sometime get confused whether I am going home or I am going away from MY home. I feel like this is my "Palace of illusions", which I will always miss my whole life.

Bainbridge island

After long time, I had awesome weekend. I got up at 10:30 am, had awesome tea and breakfast. Then watched the remaining part of the movie "The game". It was bright, drizzling outside (a typical Seattle weather, again after a long time). We thought of going for a walk, then Abhas found out about this cool park in Seattle - Bloedel reserve at Bainbridge island. You need reservation to go there, but you can get same day reservation. We got reservation at 12 and park was going to close at 4. We got ready quickly and reached at ferry termial in Seattle at 1:10 and just missed the ferry. Next ferry was at 2:10. Ferry was beautiful, you can see full Seattle skyline from the ferry. We reacheds at the park at 2:35. It started raining, but the park was looking more green and awesome in rain. After 3 years, I started loving Seattle's rainy weather. The park was beautiful, it was nice combination of seattle forest type trees and well maintained japanese garden. The best part was walking in the lust green park in light rain. If you are visiting Seattle, it is a nice place to cover with downtown.
