Tahoe

Lake Tahoe it was the past weekend. Preceeding our trip to Tahoe was amazing food+movie+games at Uttu+Manjeera's place (kudos to Manjeera and Himani for the cooking!). After we lost SidJon, Deva, and Dina Fri night, the gang that embarked on the memorable journey to Tahoe was: Utkarsh, Manjeera, Atish, Himani, Mallika, VK, and me. As the days passed, the numbers dwindled. First night, the horrendous fateful night, was the campfire night (next was the forest fire night). Next morning we went rafting, and then in the evening to the casino. That's the executive summary.

I'll spare you all the gory details of every minute of the trip, instead just give you samples to convince you that it was all happening there. Beautiful, crazy, wondeful things happened: one among us was christened "handsome retro", VK got a speeding ticket, Manjeera had a coupla milkshakes :), awesome cooking by manjeera+himani, atish fell into the water rafting, Uttu accepted a dare and walked on the edge of the raft while in motion, himani was so drunk and deluded she thought she won a fortune at the casino, videos of VK+uttu snoring were taken, Mallika was caught "playing" with a teddy bear, we got free drinks at the casino, there was an embarrassing restroom episode following anish+mallika getting lost in a 500 mt radius circle, resulting in a 911 call, a graphic story was constructed on the drive back from Tahoe, in addition to lampooning Mithun Da, fortune cookies of atish&himani caused them to want a "shield" in the car, and not to forget, witnessing the taho forest fire in all its fantastic fury. The rest is history. It'll suffice to say it was one helluva trip!
