Husband would accuse me of being silly,

and I, him.

and because I am the one with the camera

I have the upper hand

see?

we booked a cab to drive us to the airport

we waited at my void deck

it was my birthday. i had spent the bulk of the night before staring at myself in the mirror

watching myself leave my 20s behind

we sat next to a lone traveler on the plane

was he going to bali on holiday? did he have a south east asian love child to vist?

was he there to escape?

we arrived at denpasar airport.

there was a scare – we thought we had lost j’s luggage

no matter.the luggage was found.

the journey

continues

we ended the day with a bottle of champagne.

i had by then forgotten that it was my birthday.

at this point, my black and white hungarian film ran out

we spent the rest of the holiday in colour…

we were there the fall of 2005

we drove past rodeo drive

and stayed at the w hotel san francisco

where did all that time go?

the beauty of route one

still warms my heart

and makes me want to return

to be reminded of how huge the world is

and the possibilities that open up to you underneath the sheltering sky

is exhilarating

to be reminded that there are still so many places to go

and things to do

and to know that “life is a constant journey ahead” is not just a metaphor

new york

where i smelt the burning

and watched the living live

 

just one more

one more

one more

reason

to return

talk

with words

 with a look

in circles

darkness and light

for some reason, the concept of calories cease to exist when you are on holiday

is sortof like how time goes by differently when you are on a different part of the globe

how the sunlight feels different on your skin

and how you swear the sky is a different shade of blue

so too,

food tastes different

 when you are on vacation

they taste better

maybe it is the company

maybe its the ambience

or maybe it’s just cuz food tastes exciting when they are different and new
