My World tour


I recently visited Antarctica, the earth's south pole, Hawaii islands, Amazon forests, Niagara water fall's, U.S, Jerusalem, and Italy.

My trip started from Antarctica..I directly landed in The south pole first, I could see national flags of many countries placed all over there. U.S , UK, Japan..all have their national flags there...the place is a frozen desert...Exactly at the center of south pole they have placed a pole, they call it the ceremonial south pole..I visited a few huts built by early explorers from England in 1904, Visited Ross island, penguins...etc...Due to time constraints I left Antarctica with in few minutes...



The next Trip was to Hawaii Islands in the US. Such a beautiful place. If there's heavens anywhere, it is one of them. I felt like sleeping on the seashores of Hawaii...so scenic...so scenic...watched the smoking volcano's of Hawaii and left to Amazon forests..



I landed in the dense rain forests of Amazon. It reminded me of rain forests of Kerala. Actually Kerala is equally dense everywhere. I traveled through the rivers of Amazons. After visiting the Tumbira Community of Amazons I left for Niagara water falls.



I reached Niagara within seconds, as my flight was traveling at the speed of light. The waterfall is so wide and so beautiful..it is indeed a wonderful sight. From there I went to the great USA.

I landed at the Space needle in the Seattle. Visited Golden gate bridge, Times Square, South Las Vegas Boulevard and atlast The Washington mall. From there I took flight to Jerusalem, Israel.


I landed at the mount of Olives. I saw a magnificent view of the old Jerusalem from there. Headed to Gathsamen, the place where Jesus Christ's disciples are said to have prayed before crucifixion. Visited the site where Jesus was crucified. From there I went to Tel Aviv and took next flight to Italy.


I landed at the center of Colosseum, Rome, Italy. The famous stadium was built in 80 CE. Gladiatorial combats used to happen here centuries back. It reminded me of the famous dialogue from the gladiator movie....


"My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, Commander of the armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, a loyal servant to the true Emperor Marcus Aurelius, father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife and I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next".


With this I ended the small but beautiful trip..and returned.

You might me thinking...what the hell....yes I visited all these places on a single day....
It was my long cherished wish to go on a world tour. I did it yesterday.....with-the-help-of Google Street View...  :)

You can also do it... here's the link :)

World's first self chilling beer can's to hit markets.

"A self-chilling beer can could make fridges obsolete by turning lukewarm beer or fizzy drinks into ice cold versions in two minutes. They will hit the UK markets this year.

All you need to do is to hit a button at the can's base, which releases pressurized carbon dioxide from a capsule, chilling the can by 15 degrees Celsius within two minutes.

The can, its supporters claim, is far less wasteful than chilling cans in shops before they are served, the Daily Mail reported."





I read this news first in a local daily news paper.  I was surprised..amazed..and excited...Ask me why..
I was also thinking about this technology..how to make it possible.. for several years since I shifted to my family house.

My mother will not allow to store beer can's in our kitchen refrigerator...Kerala police will catch, fine and jail if you drink in  a party or bar and drive home. So having beer was a distant reality...or nearly impossible.
I tried several tricks...even tried smuggling can's to my bed room from boot of car in my porch..


But you know...if you drink in your bed room in the fear that you can be caught red handed....you know..that's not so relaxing...you will need several cans to relax effectively...

As you all know "necessity is the mother of all invention". I think CEO Mr. Joseph of Joseph Company International might have faced similar problems in life which lead him to this greatest inventions of the century...If not he..I would have done this...thanks for Mr. Joseph..


Yes I consider this as a great invention..not because it allows me to drink chilled beer but..its environment friendly also.
