Merry Christmas and Happy new year!!

This time on Christmas santa called us in his own country.Vivek has got some conference in Jan 2011 and he planned that he will not go alone this time and wants his family to come and spend time with the family here in USA. Luckily i also got few of my meetings and the trip was planned.

There were sweet co incidences happened from the day we planned our visit. Siddharth's winter vacation shifted to Jan first week it supported the days we wanted to go. The day we booked ticket it was Vivek's birthday. This was Siddharth's first travel overseas and our first overseas trip together. Siddharth got his first immigration stamp on his Grandma(Daddi) and his favourite Niru Massi Birthday.

Our stay here was for six hours and Siddharth did not got upset, rather he was enjoying the airport by roaming and exploring it.
