Vishnu and I made a quick trip to Atlanta this weekend. And by quick I mean it was less than 48 hours. But I’ll take what I can get!
We drove to Atlanta on Friday. The 11 hour drive actually flew by as we were doing some prep work for Roshni and Samir’s wedding! We got to Vishnu’s parent’s house at 8 pm. After eating dinner, we sat and talked/watched TV for a bit before heading up to bed.
Our friend Anil’s wedding was Saturday morning, so we got up, got ready, and got going! The wedding and reception were both so much fun. The whole day felt like a college reunion of sorts. Lots of eating, dancing, laughing!
On Sunday it was a little hard to rise and shine…my legs and feet were killing me! Dancing in ~4 inch heels for hours makes for a rough next morning! Regardless, we wanted to spend as much time with Vishnu’s parents and brother as we could so we sucked it up and got up pretty early. Then before we knew it, it was time to head to the airport.
I’m not going to lie – this trip made me really homesick. As much as I love living in Miami, there is nothing like home! Thank goodness I’m going back in a short 2.5 weeks!
Now for some pics from the weekend…

June 9, 2014 at 8:52 pmSounds like a whirlwind weekend – is that a bhangra dance in progress? – next time you come to Atl, would you be up for meeting for coffee?
