Uttarayan - A colourful Kite festival @ Vibrant Gujarat



 
Online search for a new Lappy, checking out Bank forms, double-dinner, lots of committee work, little time for studies. Saturday and Sunday were utilized/spoiled undergoing all the above mentioned activities.

Here comes Monday. Today i will definitely devote most of my time studying. Got up early, took bath, gone for break-fast and successfully started with Operational Management's Boeing case.

Ooo wooo, this case is “kool” -  1st page over, 2nd down, 3rd, 4th, 5th,6th ....

This created further eagerness to visualize a real look and feel of the same. Had seen Boeing 777 and 787 in practical life. But a thought started coming time and again that 'how Boeing 707, 717 etc would have been?'

Solution - Lets go to google baba.

tannn-taaraaaaa... Laptop opened.

Search in progress. 
Oooo, it looks antique... recapitulated that i had seen few of them in olden English movies. Wowwww…
By the way, why not do multitasking. Lets open Facebook in a new tab.
That’s it….. one hour lost simply as if just a minute passed.


Went for lunch thinking of studying more rigorously after coming back and moreover to avoid having look and feel of the subjects.

Had lunch at college mess, came back and started reading Management Information System's HSBC case.

Hardly half an hour passed
Chipkaalu saiyaan fevicol se…Knock Knock…. Chipkaalu saiyaan fevicol se…Knock Knock….

My phone rang and their was a knock on the door, simultaneously.
 Opened the door and picked the phone call.
Piyush entering, “lets go to Kite festival.

Sakshi on the other side of phone, “lets go to Kite festival.

“Have you met Sakshi !!”, I asked to Piyush

“hold on a second, I’ll call u back” said to Sakshi

“Hey dude, I won’t go anywhere. Already spoiled 2 days”, i told to Piyush
“Lets go buddy, we are having RBI interview, still going” Piyush replied convincingly

“Hmmmmm…”

Yo my pumpkin pumpkin suno honey bunny, tapooo tapooo.. Yo my pumpkin pumpkin suno honey bunny, tapooo tapooo..

Hello tuneeee, that’s why these days she use to pick the phone after waiting for few seconds !!

“Okay, will be joining soon”, said i

“2:30 on the front gate”

“Ya sure”, hanged off the call

We came down of hostel and started analyzing the WIP of construction area.

“JK come, we will have fun at, International Kites festival”, said i

“Who all are coming?”, asked JK

“ya, who all?” , joined Pramod

“Piyush, Sakshi, Aditi, Ashish, Pri..”, said i

“oooo-aaayyyeeee-oooo”, chorus in background

“Pritisha, me and one section B girl”,continued i

“Who?”, asked JK

“that I am not gonna reveal. You need to join us to Kite festival to have the clear picture”
all smiled

Booked two autos and reached Sabarmati Riverfront.

International Kite Festival 








Arranging Kites -> Attaching thread to it -> Able to Fly with few initial failures -> Alvida Kite due lack to thread :) :)












Buying, Bloating, Blowing -> Baasuri, Bhopu




Huge sized balloon captured on the tip of baasuri

Different festivals celebrated on the same day throughout India:

1) Uttarayan


2) Makarsakranti


3) Pongal


4) Lohri








 
As soon as we entered the food zone, there was a unanimous decision of having Kulfi. It tasted really good in that hot sunny day. 

The ice-cream in the photograph is not the real one. :) :)






Why it's called Sabarmati RIVER-FRONT ???

Tale of Kites


 It gave huge insights and was a boon to our knowledge bank through visual art and craft.  The designer of "Tales of Kites" does know how to grab the reader by his eyeballs.


The door behind this photograph was not real. But it looks so naturally astonishing.





All is well that ends well

The overall trip turned out to be a great memory which would be cherished for long time to come.
