Boston in one picture


Bad weather, great buildings, and construction everywhere.

The Old and the New. A great amalgam that is Boston.

On the Freedom Trail!


For those who didn't know!!
The freedom trail runs through the downtown Boston through most if not all the important and historic sites from the 17th to the 20th century.

Boston Common


The heart of Boston, with the high rises in the background. We are here for a 12 week period for an internship at a company based in Chelmsford, close to Lowell, MA.

Another Toll


For entering the New York State Thruway (I-95 N). We ended up paying nearly $25 in toll throughout the trip.

Entering New York City.


Stuck for a couple of hours before the George Washington Bridge toll on I-95.
We are on our way to Boston, MA!

Why its still a long way to go

Its still a very very loooong way to go for India before we can start calling it a civilized and cultured society, where people feel proud to be called Indians 7 days a week and 365 days a year, not just when India beats Pakistan at the world cup.

Most of the times, the culprit are the very leaders that are supposed to set example for the rest of us to follow. The custodians of the law, the lawmakers themselves.

The victims are those who want to do the right thing as proven by this story: http://www.ndtv.com/morenews/showmorestory.asp?slug=Rail+official+pays+for+questioning+RJD+men&id=72413

At least we get to hear about these things. Making India slightly better than places like Zimbabwe, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.
