Many thousands miles of travel - II

Just like 2007 (see this post), I'm posting my 2008 travels:

January 08: India. And not just that, got married in India. :) If you ever have an option to get married anywhere in the world, choose India. It's amazing to be in the middle of a couple of thousand people when you get married.

February 08: St-Mathieu-du-Parc, Canada (near Montreal). The cold. The snow. The Guru. What else can I say? :)

May 08: Rocky Mountains & Arches National Park. Amazing trip with Smitha. Arches is so lovely. Rocky was cold. This is probably the only place I went to twice in two years! Yes, it's _that_ lovely.

July 08: St-Mathieu-du-Parc, Canada (near Montreal). The beauty. The Lake. The Meditations. The Guru. What else can I say? :)

August / September 08: Upstate New York. The ever-lovely Cornell, the ever-enchanting Ithaca Falls, the ever-beautiful wineries. The blue Seneca Lake and the intriguing Watkins Glen. The Corning glass factory and museum. We did it all. Also went to Vraj, PA Srinathji temple.

September 08: Las Vegas / Bryce Canyon / Zion. Amazing. Bryce Canyon is so delightful, and IMHO way better than Grand Canyon. The sunrise and sunset at Bryce is breathtaking. Zion was also beautiful. Las Vegas was exciting!! The Gondola ride at Venetian and Eiffel Tower at Paris are must do!

October 08: Vermont Fall Trip. The fall colors here are so unbelievable. It's like a painter has splashed some color here and there. The bouquets of yellow, red, orange and all shades in between are guaranteed to enchant.

November: LA - to meet our dear friend Viraj. Had coffee at Intelligentsia! I liked this trip to LA. Of course Santa Monica is impossible to dislike anyway! We also went to Encinitas to pay a visit to Paramhansa Yogananda's ashram (or whatever they call it). It is one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. The California coast is a natural wonder in itself, and the spiritual energy at this place is guaranteed to stir your inner spirit. You feel the energy and the presence of an enlightened being there.

November: India Home food, rest and relaxation. Relaxing and nice trip to home, filled with love! (unfortunately, this was the same week as Mumbai attacks)

Stay tuned for more adventures in 2009!
