Heaven on Earth

India has arrived! I say that with gay abandon without having experienced either the reason for having said this. Or without having seen the snow off the cliffs of Mount Titlis. For the pictures that I have seen convey a lot!
It all started with a mail that the office guys were organizing a family day out for us. Knowing their penchant for the extravagant (Renaissance, JW Marriot, InterContinental...), I had my expectations set high. But not even in my dreams did I expect some of this magnitude. Ok! My expectations never are the moon when it comes to things of this sort. So, I was pleasantly surprised. There were talks of the SuperStar Libra, but I would attribute that more to the rumour mill. Either way, managing our strength with accompanying partners (described as a partner, not spouse) would have been no joke.

Eventually, what came out of the entire exercise was AMBY VALLEY! That came as a shock! Considering that all companies are talking about cost cutting, events like these are taking the hardest hit. And in the middle of all that, there is this! I may be making a BIG thing out of this. But, I guess that is so me! Life is all about these small (my HR guys will kill me for calling it small) joys! Looking at the website (a sleek one I must say! Must visit!), I was speechless! One look at it all and you would think that it is someplace like wonderland! The villas, the chalets, the lake view, the water sports and SO many other things! I wonder if we will see even a fraction of what is on offer!
I thought that Sahara was on the downslide and was sceptical of the company's forays and their future. After this, Subrata Roy has moved up a few notches up! Any company that some of this sort can't be all that bad! :)
I dont know what else to say...I can't wait to get there and have a ball of a time! I can't wait to click snaps by the dozen! This prompts me to say this (sounds overboard..but what the heck!)
There are some things money can't buy, the rest is taken care at the workplace! ;)
