Random Minutes to Reminiscences

On October 7^th, 2006, the journey starts little skeptical of weather.com and most of the plan amorphous. After going to Point Reyes and walking 30 stories down to a not so attractive light house, I was in the line of fire. As usual, I always get lucky for the lame things I do. We walk into this beautiful beach where serenity laid in the sound of the roaring waves and their sporadic splashes on the rocks yet tintinnabulating the chime of all the chords and notes together. Even though the freezing waters acted cold and furious that did not hinder me from resurrecting my old, calm and warm acquaintance with the pacific. As all good things have to end, this ended for something better to begin. The journey to SFO starts with ‘under the bridge’ in the background and everything true in there except the city of angels.

Driving on 101-South, we take an unexpected exit that takes us on to a summit. The picturesque scene of the man-made monument called Golden-gate altered its grandeur beyond the portrayed pictures, the more we ascended. I finally made it, the place where Hulk was standing and X-men seek their last revenge. She flaunted me with a spectacular display of rusty golden tones betting to find a better show of any other paradise. Well, I almost fell in the trap thinking that is the most glorious thing that could happen on that day and I might have run out of my luck. In no time, I was proven wrong, infact ridiculously. I walk through this tunnel to take a peep of the other side of the bay and what I see is something I dreamt my whole life.

Ocean changing its color to orangish red as if it’s blushing to meet its long-awaited friend; a reddish skyline on the horizon; a distant ship sailing into the bliss of mother nature’s heaven; well, one of the most romantic moments in my life, unfortunately had to spend with three other guys. None to blame though:)! And yeah, sun always sets in the west and it is beautiful.

Clear Skies, Sunset on one side and Golden gate on the other! That sums it all! Believe me when I say I made so many jealous with the amazing glimpse I got. It might have lasted for minutes but the reminiscences remain forever!

Worth mentioning, the best part of the trip was the chauffeur all along!
