My First Snowfall in Life @ Jyvaskyla

I was excited to see the little snow fall on the way to my office and whole the roads are painted/covered entirely with snow.  As I said, we captured few more photos over this weekend.

Reached home safely...

The flight journey was good and hassle free trip. I thank one and all who made my journey so eventful

Saunaa and Candle light dinner

Well after tired with shopping I went to Bijesh's apartment which is quite far and made bit more tired. Anyways, it was worth and enjoyed the Sauna at his apartment. During sauna, was talking to Estonian guy, Russian guy and a Finnish for over one hour length sauna.
Now that body got enough rest now rushed backed to apartment to fill my hunger. We cooked Sambar, Majjiga pulusu (masala curd), Rice and had enjoyed the candle light dinner :)




Hmm.... how does this look :)

Shopping, Lunch @ Afghan Restaurant

Very busy and tiring saturday...

Bijesh's call woke me up and I soon joined him at the City center to do shopping. I picked few blazers (Batistini) and suits (Signor) from Dressman. Lots of choice and it was very difficult to pick few and luckily Bijesh helped me with few good deals.
Then we moved to nearby Afghan Resataurant, where we enjoyed the Pizza Buffet.

@ night Jyvaskyla

Just came back from "night" - is the new night club at Jyvaskyla. Well after last week's disco at Giglin & Marlin, I am kind of becoming a party animal. 'night' is quite a large one compared to Giglin & marlin. The best part was 'karoake', where lots of people gathered around. After 12 the people started gathering at dance floor.
The item numbers started bit slow and very less beat but the 'maha' song pulled me to the floor. Well this was the song that I heard through "Mantra" a telugu movie, where beauty 'charmee' danced to the number. Below is the video from you tube, look into it even you start to dancing to this number.



Well another night at a different disco. It was spent very good till 2AM and worth it :)

Disco @ Giglin & Marlin...

Another weekend celebrated with most enthusiasm. My friends Aditya and Ganesh were here at Jyvaskyla on a official trip and had a fun time at our house. Cooking, discussing, joking pulling each other legs and many more...
As usual it's another rainy day at Jyvaskyla, but decided to start to pub once I am done with my phone calls. Grabbed few burgers and coke at Hesburger and then entered Giglin & Marlin disco pub. We realized it was to early and had initial round of drinks and slowly as more and more people are pitching in DJ started playing the nice tunes and the soothing to nice beat songs.
Well it was all dance and dance, with lots of bubbly girls around.






I can only say, another weekend spent nicely... :)

Cruise Tip to Tallinn, Estonia

Going into details of the trip...
Last weekend was very energetic and bubbly, guess what I did sail again on Baltic Sea this time to Tallinn, capital city of Estonia. It was a packaged trip that includes pick and drop. Bijesh booked a cabin in the Tallinnk Cruise.

We were picked up @ Jyvaskyla and it was a 5 hour drive to Helsinki port, where we need to catch our cruise. We moved on with a lunch break in the middle and around 5:30 we were given our access cards to cruise .

It was few minutes and we joined the people who are eagerly waiting to get into the cruise. And we all started moving to respective cabins.













The Tallink Cruise team was eagerly waiting to welcome us. They distributed sufficient info brochures and booklets regarding the sales and outlets that are available in the cruise. Hey forgot to show you, this is the cruise.

It was called as "Baltic Princess", hmmmm yup they were right. Let me quickly show few snaps of it that would justify the naming...
no-slippery deck, well lit corridors and more...


I spent enough time on deck before left to "starlight" to enjoy the light music. Within few minutes the orchestra started people started flocking around from everywhere and starting enjoying the music with drink and couples occasionally dancing to the tunes...
We had a nice time and we reached Tallinn Port by 10:00 pm.

Warm sunday @ Jyvaskyla beach

Thank God (Sun God) for his mercy and he was bright even this Sunday. Bijesh guided us to go around the beach(across lake), church, city malls...
I was bit excited as this is my first time into the beaches ;) I made few sandwiches, grabbed some fruits and ready with spare clothing, shorts. It was just 20mins bike ride


There were many people who were immersed in their own activities. Many of them were enjoying sun bath, some were reading books, relaxing, some with kids and some were busy with preparing/arranging food & drinks.




It was great :)

Cruise Trip to Stockholm

Last weekend was a great one, as it was mid-summer day Friday was holiday and I just grabbed the chance to visit stockholm.
The trip contains lots of "my first" apart from "my first on site trip - Finland"

• My first cruise trip - stockholm
• My frist Cruise - viking line
  
• My first sea I sailed on - Baltic
• My first Sauna refreshment

About sauna, I just made a post highlighting the benefits and it's History.
It was a great experience touring, I met lots of people who expressed their respect to our great Mother India and the fortunate, blessed Indians.

Search for Indian Restaurant ends here :)

It's been very tough for me to manage daily with Noodles, Bread and spreads, Pizzas... how much or how many ever you eat you can not compare them with one plate of rice and Andhra pickels combination.
Luckily we just spotted "Shalimar" restaurant @ Jyvaskyla. Anyways once we move to the flat from our hotel we can start cooking our varieties. Hey this is our hotel, "Omena Hotel" @ Jyvaskyla.




The best thing is the entry needs a pass code not the usual way of key

88517 - well this is the room code, and will be removed once we check out of the hotel.

A random pick during my stay @ hotel.

Album is here :)

@ Helsinki, Jyvaskyla
