Life in 18 Oct 2021 - 12 Mar 2022

Don't be a rock
Flow as a river be
Corona tried to put us into a lock
Key is always to break free :)


2021 ended with with more travels. Two Goa trips and one Germany. Germany one at the start of Omicron wave. What a trip.
Then came 2022 and we were down with Corona - Omicron variant. Second time. In 9 months. After two weeks of getting back from Germany. Likely because of a family dinner. But this time was so mild that I took only a day off. Given the 2021 travels, we are right now in self imposed stay-at-BLR orders.  But you can still roll in BLR. I am getting ahead so lets take it a step at a time.
And did I mention that there is also a war going on. Out of nowhere it seems, as they usually are. 


Travels 

Trip to Goa - Family reunion - One things to note is that family reunions should be limited to two days. It was decently enjoyable.
Germany -

BLR parties
7 years of anniversary celebration


Trip to VVPuram with Abhishek Sonal & family


Walk in Cubbon with family


Getting ready for a date night


When comes Covid, comes tv series

Chernobyl - 4.5/5
Deserves all the accolades it is getting

Reacher - 4/5
Action flick done right. Looking for all future seasons :)

Squid game - 3/5
Decent one time watch but too much attention to it

The Boys - 4/5
More enjoyable that I expected and may be I would like to. But it is a treat to watch!

And rewatching Schitts creek - my comfort series now with the depressing war going on.

Watching movies in cinema hall is back

Matrix 4 - 3.5/5
More nostalgia than the movie. But matrix flicks never shied from taking risks. 

Eternals - 3.5/5
I liked it. Rewatched it at home too!

Dune - 4/5
Need to watch again and maybe it will grow. But great first half.
