Trip to Cookgramam a.k.a Pattikaadu a.k.a Countryside


Oh yes...for the past 3 weeks I have been making trips and I was tired of them, but something that made me excited is that I am gonna have my first time visit to a country side home and have slumber party with gals. Furthermore the fun part was it was Liz's parents house we (Dilusha, Sarah, Radhika and Liz) . Liz and I have been like twin sisters and luved each others company and always had fun times with each other. It was so nice that she invited all of us for 1.5 days to her parents house just months before she was leaving Kansas for good.

We decided to leave on Saturday morning and come back by Sunday evening 4:30pm. I was decided we 5 were going in my car. We were supposed to bring 3 meals for Saturday and Sunday. Liz's parents were supposedly providing us breakfast for sunday. Sarah, dilusha and Radhika were supposed to come to my house at 6:30 am on Saturday. with difficulty I got up early enough not to be complained by ne1 tht I was the reason to be late and it turned out that other were late and they came by 7am. I then went to Liz's place and we started from her house by 7:45 to her parents house nearly 4 hrs away.

Liz preferred to use her direction instead of my nuvifone n said hers wld be a shorter time than nuvi getting confused n recalculating n delaying us. We finally reached there around 11:30. As I was parking the car in their yard...3 huge dogs started coming towards our car. For me it takes time to get friendly with a dog until which I get freaked out by its presence..but somehow I got used to it n tried to find my way inside the house to find 3 more small dogs inside..all which were running around our legs trying to lick us everywhere...Liz intro her sweet parents and then she asked me to go upstairs n asked me to select ne one of the two room there and choose that as our bedroom for the night. Dilusha was my roomie for the night. It was a beautiful room under the roof of the house with stars stuck to the ceiling..was like a dream come true . We then freshened ourselves and went outside to have our horse back rides. They totally had 5 horse that day..3 belonged to each of Liz, her dad n mom and the other 2 were what they were boarding in for others. They were really cool horses. Liz got Gabby her hrse ready along with one of the horses they were boarding for us to ride on. Sarah volunteered first followed by me and dilusha. I was awesome ride in their 120 acre patch. After that we took off to walk on her fav pasture n c the missile base. I was a fun walk By the time we came back it was getting dark and we were all sooo tired. We ate our dinner and then went to bed..

Next day we headed for another walk in her neighborhood and came back for lunch where we had dilushas vadas n brownies, Liz's mom's pie with ice cream along with what we had got. We then took off around 12 back home as we had to be back for Sarah's church mass at 5pm.

It was really fun and a different experience of my life...had good girls day out!!!
