Aasman Se

There was a fleet show in San Francisco on Oct6-7 as part of the Fleet week. The navy's blue-angels were the highlight of the day and judging by the huge huge huge crowd gathered, I must say the most awaited too. And boy! Were they good!!

One of my friend remarked: "They risk their lives for our entertainment". How true. One split-second hesitation/miscalculation and..I don't even wanna get to what would happen. It is scary.

Well, on a lighter note, we walked past Ghirardelli again ;-) But couldn't stop by coz of the long long queue! Had some amazing cup-cakes though, from a shop famous exclusively for them.

We went to take the SFO tour ride but..yep..the queue again!


So we went to get pictures of the crooked street :-) and to reach the street, we walked 4 blocks uphill!!! gosh.. what roads..It was a miracle that I didn't faint out of exhaustion!!! [I am def going to start going to the gym regularly again :-D]


And oh..there were a few firsts-for-me that day! [Yep, that's right, revealing only a little, which does make people curious. 2 of my friends do that to me and god, do I get irritated!!!!!! Its pay-back time!!!]

Here are some pictures of the air show and the crooked street and some flowers again! :-) Enjoy!!!!!




Topsy-turvy! The red-bull in action



Love is in the air!



Whooosh!!
