Glance Digitally - Travel the world with me virtually !

  Two weeks ago, we went to Leavenworth in Washington State and believe me I have two words to describe this paradise on Earth (at least to me ). 🤍💙 Picturesque perfect !!!!😍 This beautiful Bavarian charm style village @ Washington is quite similar to Bavaria in Germany which I heard is the most popular travel destinations with a mix of natural scenery, sensational authentic flavored restaurants and distinctive German culture.   Leavenworth is 2.5 hrs. drive from Seattle, You can take freeway I-90 or US-2 to reach this magical town with a view surrounded by Alps-looking cascade mountains 🏔 and alpine lakes . It's winter wonderland with a plenty of winter activities to enjoy for both adults and kids⛄🏂. Its been a top tourist destination in the Pacific Northwest . Of course Leavenworth is beautiful in all seasons perfect tourist destination with many events and festivals celebrated almost every month like Bavarian Ice festival, Spring festiv

Everywhere I look, I can see the visible changes in nature as it prepares for Fall/ Autumn season, temperatures are getting cooler and breezy, leaves changing into rust-colors and strewn all over on roads and highways.  For me this is the most incredible time of the year apart from Spring with vibrant hues of yellow, orange, red and brown. "Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower." - ALBERT CAMUS As most of us know, on September 21st each year, we embrace the fall season with the arrival of the fall equinox (also known as the autumnal equinox ). Born and growing up in a cosmopolitan city in India, I hardly saw any greenery around my house so, I did miss the beauty of the nature during the seasonal changes. But, now living in US almost two decades, made me see and enjoy the nature near my home or during my travels particularly beautiful and colorful flowers blooming in Spring from March to May, Fall/autumnal leaf color changing to vibrant

The quiet paved path on the road infront of my house began to dampen quickly with the sudden rain fall since dawn today and I am sitting in my front yard sipping hot cup of Chai on a rainy day watching a view of greenery around me as if nature has come alive. It is just mid-morning now as the sun struggles to make its presence behind a thick sheath of clouds.☁ The memory of my childhood doubled down on me (and so I'm penning down my thoughts in this blog ) when I was recalling my past where I would enjoy the simple pleasures of rainy day like eating snacks- vegetable samosas, onion pakora, Maggie noodles 🍜 or simple plain biscuits along with my favorite masala chai/tea, a perfect treat I deserved after a hectic day of studies/work. Playing in the rain while coming from school or college or office.☔ Such a fond memories!! Chai with a bite on the samosas or fried fitters platter (either Onions, Green chilies, Potatoes, Cauliflower, Cabbage or bre

Viva Las Vegas!  A famous 1964 American musical movie of Elvis Presley and Ann Margret.🕺💃 It's a Spanish phrase, "Viva" means "Long Live" and "Las Vegas" means “The Meadows”. So, Long Live Las Vegas !!😁🙃 "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas!" 🤫 - An endearing slogan among people around the world. But, my dear friends, I would definitely want to share my Las Vegas travel experiences. 🤗 I have been to Las Vegas at least 4 times in last 2 decades.  Las Vegas is known for its amazingly detailed contemporary architecture of resorts, hotels and casinos like MGM Grand, New York-New York, The Venetian, Caesars Palace, Paris hotel, Bellagio and many more.🏙 The iconic Las Vegas strip  also known as Las Vegas Boulevard, a major road in the Las Vegas Valley, is an incredibly place to walk with endless sights especially during night making Vegas atmosphere alive. Its one of my standout memories. We don&#

We went to Capitol Building during a weekend in January this year and it's an unfortunate that the galleries for the Senate, House and Supreme Court building were not open (or may be due to Covid restrictions ) so, we couldn't get a tour of the capitol inside. I highly recommend taking your kids to see this masterpiece, a great place to visit at least once. I definitely appreciate the beauty of the building and landscaping. There are a few statues/monuments here as well along with huge walking grounds outside. I heard there are free tour every hour unfortunately we went there during wrong time. But will definitely go again some other day in future with my family to check gallery indoors, will take more photos and will write in detail about Washington State Capitol Building again. PS: Parking is on the street or visitor center in front of the building and paid at the kiosk, well worth the small amount you

Hey Guys 😇, Hope u had wonderful time and stayed safe. I have been having busy schedule lately so, Its been few weeks since I posted articles about my travels.  Last Saturday, we have been to Crystal Mountain located in the Cascade Range of Washington (in the northwestern United States), southeast of Seattle. It's a bit of a drive from the city, however, its well worth it. Crystal Mountain was opened for business during winter of 1962. It's a great family destination and perfect for Ski or Snowboarding or   Gondola lift or  just playing in snow .  We visited Crystal Mountain for a day getaway from our busy schedule with our son and oh man, we had a wonderful time with unexpected snow and amazing scenery (I was totally surprised to see snow in April since its our first time visit to Enumclaw). Of course I don't know skiing 😛, so enjoyed the scenic and breathtaking view of crystal mountain. You also get to view Mount Rainier
