This is the continuation of my last post i.e my last year's birthday. When my parents asked me what gift I wanted; I settled for cash :D as I think that money can buy almost everything (almost) :p
While from my husband I had demanded a small weekend getaway. He being a super busy surgeon (sigh) could not take two days off for his wife's birthday. So I had to plan something for my own self that would fulfill my getaway fantasy. :)

The best part of Delhi is that it has got myriads of options. Heritage, luxury, adventure..you just name a genre and you will find a place offering that. I have always been fond of historical places. They offer so much to see learn and cherish; and they offer great photography options!! So i chose Humayun tomb for the first half of the day. I had been there earlier in a jiffy while it  was the first time for my husband.

Now for the second half of the day( I had to do everything on that very day as hubby could take only a day off) I needed some resort kind of treatment. I had heard of Aqua, a poolside restaurant in a 5 star hotel, The Park, when i was in college. Till now I had not been there as its on Parliament Street, quite far from my place. So this was the perfect opportunity to indulge my taste buds in an aquatic environment.
Aqua is a Mediterranean restaurant, a cuisine which we both love. The only downside is that it has a very limited menu. It has been awarded the bar with the best ambience many times over ; so I was pretty excited :) hubby nonetheless was indifferent :D

I had an evening reservation , so we wrapped up our humayun tomb fiesta within 5pm and then zoomed our way to parliament street. Our experience was worth every second that I had spent on its planning :)

this place has cute private cabins

fully equipped with cots n television

love the poolside ambience

this place is best at night

i jus love these eggshell couches

a wonderful conclusion to a very eventful day...and I turned a year older!!

I am a kind of girl who loves planning. Birthdays, anniversaries, special occasions or even petty ones...I spend months planning in advance. :D  My husband is simply the opposite; so are my parents and close friends!! They simply leave everything for the last moment!! Now since I plan for months for my near ones' birthdays, you can understand how excited I would be for my own!!! I was born on 22june in haldia, a port city in West bengal, where june is the perfect season!!! Its rainy and cool and beautiful!! But since I was brought up in Delhi; I had to bear the curse of June!! scorching and smouldering heat!! arghhh!! None of my friends have been able to understand the beauty of being a june born; instead they grumble that I am born on the wrong side of the calender :( sigh :( My hubby too hates summers and he simply doesnot feel like going out of the air conditioned room!!!

What can I do!! I cannot possibly relocate to another city where the weather is bearable!! But what I can do is I can enjoy Whatever God has given me!! I though wish I had near ones who would give surprises on my birthday!! Now what I can possibly do is plan my own like every year!!

Just a month left, I am very excited. That reminds me of my last year's outing in the heat in one of the greatest historical places of Delhi that left my hubby sweating and fuming!! Well I dont mind since I have such nice photographs; otherwise I would not have been able to share with you all!!

Humayun's tomb is one of the best constructions of Mughal era. Humayaun, the second Mughal emperor was buried here. It is a beautiful place to hang out and reminds me a little bit of the great Taj Mahal. :)





just entered the monument and I started posing!!

the palm trees adding the green tinge to the ruins!!


the main mausoleum..

tiny hubby in front of huge architecture!!

I took this to upload in chictopia :p
