I have to write in my blog again since I want to relive joy of our india vacation. This is my 3rd trip to India after my stroke. & as they say 3rd is the charm. I shiver thinking about my first trip I was huge mess at that time & hated getting pity of every one around me at that time. I just suffered fall right before our second trip & I was hugely in fog during that trip so did not enjoy much, but this time was exceptional. I didn't look or feel the poor me part like my first trip so felt difference in how every one treated me like old times, actually had blast, hear people commenting how good I looked & lamenting why do we have to live so far away since they can't spend more time with us. hubby saw first time me in action post stroke that how tight I am with all of his family ofcourse that made him very happy too. Great thing was that every one treated me like old Asha & no different. Even though kids have grown up &has family of their own, when we were together we were bickering like old times which is 20 years ago when I had just came into their family. ofcourse for kido it was all bit unusual, but for me it was best time again, felt like 21 year old again when bickering specially with my 2 of my nephews who are now big shot businessmen.

In this trip we visited hubby's village by train one way since I wanted our kido to experience train ride,though it was more luxurious than plane ride. we had asked my sister-in-law to accompany us in this journey & we all had great time during our train ride. we played cards for few hours & it was so much fun, kido & I made sure hubby & sister-in-law was taking turn in loosing. It was so much fun teasing both of them whole time & every one taking it in good spirits. I still smile thinking about that ride.
