London Retrospective - 2010




After a presidential term in Philadelphia, I decided to pack my bags and move to London…. On the last night, I walked down to Boathouse Row to take some farewell pictures…..


Upon landing in UK, I got a warm welcome at Rupali tai's residence at Hatfield Heath! Here's the naughty Akshay and the quiet Ani in oblivious action...


Rupali tai and Suresh!


Oh! And even Rich was around in the UK at that time...


Baby Sara too was a London nivaasi… She gets a visit from her "mama"…We had some fun times together...


Within a week, I found a home stay with Vanessa Parrott… She had two cats. Here, a squirrel puzzles Squeaky


My first weekend in the UK was spent in Sheffield with the Imperial Outdoor Club…. This was taken on a Sheffield suburban street next to the overnight rest stop…


I spent an amazing day out on Stanage Edge.. I'll visit Stanage Edge again later in the summer of 2012 in sunnier conditions..


Walking past Lady Bower reservoir...


This was my quiet room in Crouch End for the next two years...


Piglet (yes, that's a catname) is the other one..


One of my favorite London desserts - Eccles Cakes!


London roaming with Richa before she goes back to India...


The winter of 2010 saw several inches of snow dumped over London… Public transit and even Heathrow operations were seriously affected!


That December I visited India… A nice break! And guess who's waiting for me there?? Miss Sara!
