something happened to the connection. i get bugged waiting it to load.
ok, this place chirrapunji is small place but here is this water falls called Noakali falls. it is beautiful. there is the story of a mother committing suicide by jumping down there, and her name was Noakali.

there are so many small falls all around the cliff face. and the last one is from where we can see the plains of our neighbour - Bangladesh - when the fog lifts.

rest of the story

Category: nature's marvels | Posted: Tue Jun 02, 2009 6:08 am

well, we had only three days there, so we could see only a few places. but that was really awesome.
this is the elephant falls, which has 3 levels. itseems there was a rock in the shape of an elephant but it was destroyed in an earthquake in the 19th century. it is wonderful they have preserved these forests without pollution. we heard that the people of Meghalaya refused to have a railway line in the state to keep the place clean and pollution free.

you pay some rent and they let you dress up in their traditional attire and take pictures. these are some of their ornaments and weapons of the attire.

this is a view point from where we see miles and miles of hills and valleys. on the way to Chirrapunji, the place which gets the highest rainfall.

the story of a holiday

Category: nature's marvels | Posted: Mon Jun 01, 2009 5:43 am

hello,
i am very happy because we could get away from here for a few days.
and we went to a far off place - Shillong - that is at the far east end of India.
we had only heard of the place, we had studied in school that the place Chirrapunji
in Meghalaya gets the highest rainfall in the world. Shillong is the capital of
the state Meghalaya.
it is about 4000mts above sea level. and the climate there is so pleasant, we felt we could stay forever.
these are a few of the places we saw. so sad we couldn't stay for long.

The Cathedral in the centre of the city.

Ward's lake - large lake with walk way all around the place.
different types of trees and very serene atmosphere. [URL=http://s462.photobucket.com/albums/qq341/greenfairy55/shillong/?action=view¤t=DSC01035.jpg][/URL]

the second largest natural golf course

Lady Hyderi Park - all these in the city itself. the city has roads that are
curving and climbing. ups and downs all over.

picture of the month

Category: hobbies for profit | Posted: Sat Mar 07, 2009 5:21 am

hello everybody,

thank you so much for selecting one of my flowers as picture of the month. that is high recognition,and i am so delighted.

lots of flowers are blooming now. even the roses are coming out. most of the plants are so delicate, the flowers are bending down that i have to give them support.

this is one plant which has flowers like crossandra, but the leaves and structure are different. someone please identify this.

a new venture

Category: hobbies for profit | Posted: Wed Jan 28, 2009 9:55 am

I don't know where to start. ok, i was busy with something wonderful. for the past three weeks, we were preparing to participate in a horticultural flowershow conducted in connection with the republic day of India, Jan 26th. we wanted to show our bonsai and other foliage plants to the public. a lot of work went into it, since it was the first time ever. we participated in the home garden section and had a stall for the exhibition where we could display and sell some of the plants. there was a good response for my bonsais. and guess what? they gave me a second prize for the home garden and a third for the stall. i am really thrilled. now that we have a name, we are going to be busy more than before.
I will add some pictures here.
I thank all you guys for encouraging me and supporting me. you really gave me confidence.
