2nd or 3rd?

Someone at work asked is this my second honeymoon or third?

Would have loved to answer that my life is a honeymoon, in my typical witty way.

But I paused before answering; life for the past few months has been anything but a honeymoon. Multiple responsibilities, lack of purpose and direction, unsure of where I will be the next day and unsure of even what I want to do with my life.

We have been telling each other that we need a break nay deserve one but where is the time and lets not forget the money for that?

We have been to the nearby mountains umpteenth times since those visits are light both on time and money but we wanted to do something a little different from those trips, we wanted to really be able to relax and yeah also perhaps rediscover each other. Discuss our needs, wants, desires and hopes too.

Destinations like the North-east, Leh, Colombo, Malaysia were thought of and then discarded, they promised too much activity. Our criteria was peace, quiet and a chance to soak in some natural beauty.

Finally we decided on the location: Andamans.

Distant: its 1200 kms from the mainland.
Exotic: the tribes that inhabit Andaman and Nicobar are some of the most protected.
Beautiful: The beauty of the place has had many admirers.
Peaceful: Not many people think of visiting Andamans. They would rather go to more exciting foreign locales.

So off we are for a five day trip!

The pictures here are all from the internet...hopefully will be able to share some self-clicked ones once am back...

Ciao till then!!
