Happy birthday to you!!!

14th June was Mom's B'day. HAPPY 19th B'DAY MOM!

Aren't all women the same when it comes to age! Mom JUST wouldn't let me type her real age!

My Aunt though takes the cake when it comes to age matters (pun intended). She's just sweet 16. Ironic, isn't it! The elder sister is younger than the younger sister! That kind of Maths would have fooled even Al Ein, I'm just a kid!!! But tell me something, does anyone really understand women!!!

Anyways, so coming back on track.. We had a great time. We cut Mom's birthday cake in the morning and then went picnicing to Cove Island Park, which is a nice picnic spot near where we stay.

This park, I should tell you, is a very chilled out place; people come here to play volleyball or barbecue or laze around on the beach or swim in the cool Long Island Sound waters in summer. Incidentally, summer is the season Americans enjoy the most. They just love to tan up in the sub-40 deg C temperature. Send them all to India, I say!!

If they'd have to tolerate summer year-round, like we have to in India, it wouldn't have been as much fun after all!

But I guess that's just human isn't it;
a) You don't have what you really want.
b) You don't need what you have.
c) And when you have what you really want, you go back to point #b above!!

The proverbial bird in hand loses out once again to the one in the bush..

Well, coming back to CI Park.. The best thing about it (that is , apart from the pretty girls lying around in tiny bikinis) is the train ride that takes me around the park.

Mom's B'day seemed more like my B'day, 'coz Mom took me for a long long train ride around the park! Which I LOVVEEEDDDD!!

Like the chap once said..

Go East, Go West,
Momma is the BEST!

Thanks Mom!
