Sherlock Holmes

finally went for "Sherlock Holmes" today...
Downey Jr was quite good as Holmes, eccentric as he should be, but Jude Law didnt suit me as Dr Watson...
Guy Ritchie must have been reading 'Angels and Demons' while making this movie because at one point in the film you will feel whether you are watching Sherlock Holmes or a Dan Brown novel-turned-film...
Nevertheless the film is quite enjoyable as a thriller...you will be able to enjoy it more if you forget that its a book written by Conan Doyle..otherwise you will feel a bit dissapointed...
already waiting for the sequel to this..Holmes vs Moriarty..a mouth watering clash.

There and Back Again

that last post cost me 40 bucks!!!!!thus making my balance close to something like Rs -43...how was i supposed to know that for 23rd jan vodafone hiked the GPRS charges while keeping the usual call rates and sms facilities???some brilliant mind in the vodafone top brass came up with this meaningless plan and ended up making me suffer by not being able to call or text anyone that evening :x ...but Captain Morgan kept me company though(for those of u who dont know who or what Captain Morgan is...it's a very good quality rum much better than our old "Old Monk")...


Anyway, continuing on the Sunderban saga, the next day (ie 24th Jan) we went to this Crocodile Sanctuary by boat..the boat ride on the river was AWESOME!!!The sanctuary housed crocodiles from the time when they hatched till they were about 4-5 year old...but still they kept around 8-9 fully grown crocodiles for breeding purposes (their average size being about 7-8 feet long)..we were told during the 'Aila' the water levels rose higher than that of the walls of the croc enclosures so some of the full grown ones escaped...so imagine this scenario.."u being one of the guards have to ride out the storm on the island,...the water levels have risen , and crocs can escape...imagine living then knowing full well a 8 foot long crocodile can jump you anytime anywhere"...i would be scared shitless...

...moving on...the lunch on the boat in the middle of the river was spectacular..the ambience made up for the quality of the food..
also...saw a crocodile outside the sanctuary..we were just able to spot it diving smoothly into the water...
all in all the day can be described as "L-E-G-E-N----wait for it----D-A-R-Y, LEGENDARY" (ya i copied it from Barney from 'how i met your mother'....so what...)


PS- will post the pictures later in some other post
