I have lived in Minneapolis for more than 6 years, but never really visited Chicago to actually see the city and hangout with my good old friends. So, Finally, I decided to visit Chicago during thanksgiving and so far i am having a blast.
Blame it on global warming but I ll take this warm weather we are having in any given day. As we all know, when it comes November, Minneapolis is not known for warm, sunny weather. Normally by this time we get ready to bundle up before getting out from house. Also, its not unusual to see couple of inches of snow on the ground. But, its almost mid November, and I still can drive my car with windows rolled down. Simply unbelievable. So far we had July weather in June, June weather in July, October weather in November and November weather in October.
We have so confused mother nature and she can’t figure out which month should get its respective weather. Hopefully she will stay in this state of mind till next spring.
Surprisingly I felt very good on Sunday morning no pain in my legs, more that my legs it was my ass which was hurting after sitting just over 5 hours on the saddle. Evening I went for a short 25mile ride just to stretch out the legs as well as to get the lactic acid that was build up. During the 25mile ride I felt like I was riding some crazy mountain, i think it was my lactic acid.
Dehiwala is coastal town geographically somewhat similar to San Fran and highly populated, highly developed suburb in Colombo District. Recently there have been major additions to Dehiwala skyline such as five start rated apartment complexes. Galle is an internationally famous town in Sri Lanka and Dehiwala is a major town that connect South and Colombo. During Tsunami Dehiwala Coastal area got effected but fortunately it was minimal. There are thousands of major bus lines cross Dehiwala junction in daily basis and not only that if you are traveling from South to Colombo or Colombo to any part of the South you have to pass Dehiwala.
In the map below, follow the Hill Street towards to your left, and you will see how breath taking it is…

If you haven’t been to Heritance Ahungalla, you should try sometime. Specially if you are thinking a quick getaway from Colombo… enough of that… we had a awesome time at Heritance. Played some good tap rugby and had some few drink while enjoying the nice cool breeze of the coast. It was simply fantastic, more than anything hanging out with my buddies Nana, Ranidu & Kumi, Kani… was priceless….
I am sure I am going to miss Duluth, I survived hash cold winters while enjoying few snow storms we had in past years especially the one which was in March. I absolutely cherished the summer, there is nothing like Duluth summer. Combination of the beautiful yet cold lake superior and the warm, hot but comfortable weather makes you feel like you are floating under zero gravity environment. But starting from tomorrow all that is past, I will be a city boy again.
My Check list….
Ticket – Bought and Confirm,
Call Nana To get info on how to get into his appartment and figure out a secret place to hide the key.
Put a resevation for the Rental Car.
I guess we are ready to roll, and this will be the first time I am meeting my home boy Ranidu for the first time In USA after six years, I guess its about time…..
It was a crazy trip….
I like Key West more that Miami South Beach. Party Life was fun but I enjoyed Para Sailing, and all the other stuff like great people (if you know what i mean….). We were not that happy since we spend awful amount of time on Traffic before getting inside the clubs. So if you ever planning on going to Miami South Beach on Memorial Weekend, It you better forget about it…..
We took so much pictures but my friend Shafz, who has a very low tech skill cant figure out, how to get them into a web or email…..untill then this is what i got.
Miami South Beach
After finishing a succesful trip in West Cost, I am getting ready for my East Coast Blast. Miami here we come, I am sure that we(myslef, Indi, Shafz) are going have great time.
Miami Here We Come, You better Get ready……
Google, lot of people are going crazy about Google especially world is waiting to know how it looks like inside Google building. Before anything I must say that I am proud to have one of my best friend working for Google as a Software Engineer. As I mention, I finished my California trip at Google Campus.
At the entrance to the Google building you get to see the first rack that Larry Page and his partner build during their time at Stanford, also there is a screen which shows every single search string that you type in Google web site. So if you are searching some wild give a second thought because some one is watching……
The other cool thing is Google has small kitchens within every 100 feet inside the building so, if you get to go to Google and if you feel you went to a huge cafeteria, I will not blame you for that thought….also my friend told all the Google employee’s get FREE breakfast, lunch and dinner from the Google Main cafeteria. So if you get to work for Google, then you don’t have to worry about cooking.
There are so much other things that I can keep on write about, let me say that is one sentence, Google is the Place to work with out no doubt.
If i am lucky enough……………………………………………………….
