Christmas Holidays Minnesota




 Recently we had a chance to celebrate our Christmas and New Year vacation with our in laws in Eagan, Minnesota. Anita’s sister in law Kanmani was working there, her parents were already there and her brother came from India for vacation for two weeks and it was a perfect family get together for Christmas which we never imagined before some months. It was very cold out there and relatively huge amount of snowstorm when compared to NJ. We got a chance to make snow man in the biting cold and Anish simply loved it. The baby showering festival for Kanmani took place very grandly and we all had a great time with delicious sweets, snacks and breakfast.



We celebrated our new year’s eve in Mall of America which happens to be the biggest mall in America. Another notable thing in Minneapolis is the Sky Walk which connects the different buildings and it’s highly beneficial during biting winters. We had a chance to visit many temples (Hindu Temple of Minnesota in Maple Grove, Sri Venkateswara Hindu Temple) nearby. We had a nice get together with Kanmani’s colleagues and it was awesome Biryani prepared by Brutto. Copper Pot Indian Grill is a decent Indian restaurant in the downtown of Minnesota and Genghis Grill, the Mongolian BBQ grill – build your own stir fry was a fascinating experience as well. All in all it was a nice Christmas break to spend time with family, friends and relatives to gear up for the next year.

Company's Christmas Party 2015



Recently we had a chance to celebrate our Company's annual Christmas party with  our family members in the New York cruise which departed from Lincoln Harbor in Weehawken. The lively dinner party atmosphere of the cruise made a lasting impression among us. The majestic New York City skyline could be watched from the dining table and many had a chance to head out to open-air observation deck to get the panoramic view of New York City. There were some incredible sights throughout the cruise including Freedom Tower, Statue of Liberty and iconic Brooklyn Bridge. Music was provided throughout the evening by onboard DJ which encouraged our colleagues to kick up their heels on the dance floor. It was a great evening which made everyone to celebrate the year’s hard work in a festive way.
