TORONTO bound!
Hello hello.
So we were going to stay in Paramus, NJ - about 20-40 minues away from NYC, NY…..for a few days. However, Danny boy (that darm hurricane monster thing) is raining on our parade! We decided that Toronto (i.e. etobicoke and brampton) would be a heck of a lot better - plus we need to get ready for school, y’all!
So 8:39 am, and we are going to go have our complimentary...
trip shortened
so i suppose there is a saying
that goes with road trips.. “you travel as long as the road goes, or until the money runs out”
dude…
totally out of money
we have enough to stay in a cheap hotel outside of NJ..
we were going to Maine, and then decided to stop in a village, and ended up looking at a map at this small hotel, and noticed that Maine is about 6 hours away, and New...
Sita Sings the Blues
Hey y’all!
We are watching Sita Sings the Blues
look it up, it’s free - it’s on Ananthy’s computer, otherwise i’d link you…
anyways it is AWESOME to have Nav around, because he studied Ramayana (or Ramayan) because he tells us the meaning of certain jokes, of each name, of back stories of each divine character in the stories, and parts that are missing or...

chicago. drove from south dakota straight here … :D going to walk around after nav is done with his darn tootens nap.
dudes, in South Dakota, please check out and support:
Crazy Horse memorial: http://www.crazyhorsememorial.org/
It is fascinating. Although I am not sure carving out Crazy Horse into the sacred Black Hill mountains, the entirety of the project seems very promising.

Video making...
Hello folks. Those of you who have seen: Saheli, Accented. I made a few in the car. The awesomeness that ensued caused Nav to not realize we had no gas, and then we went through the boonies, and met some kids who got excited that we were from Ontario (btw on the I-90 between Montana and Wyoming, we saw about five Ontario licence plates!), but eventually found out way to a gas...
Btw..
we are in Yellow Stone National Park. WICKED SAUCE.
Will upload photos tonight, like I will? AARTHY! Ananthy too. oh and Nav.. hehe.

Helena, Montana
Nav is currently driving on the I-90 towards Bozeman, Montana. We just left Helena, Montana, the state capital. We drove in yesterday, quite tired from sitting in a car for 15 or so hours. Although the day did begin beautifully driving throughout Banff, Alberta, and ending up in Radium, B.C. It was absolutely stunning. I am not sure a camera, or even recollection of memory can really give the...
Where we at?
We are in Helena, Montana.
Currently at tyler knott and sarah’s house! It’s 6am. They are still asleep. So is Ananthy. i went on a walk around the neighbourhood, and the capital building. PRETTY wicked at sunrise! Nav went to McDonald’s Pass to catch the sunrise on them hills - I was too lazy to go at that time.
Mk don’t want to make too much noise..but THEY ARE AWESOME....

HEY Y’ALL
woops. Got a little excited. We left Olds, about 1 hour ago. We are currently trying to find gas.
Nav’s friend Russel, and his hubby Kevin are awesome! The sunset on their farm was gorgeous, and we had a bonfire in the ridiculous cold night. Beautiful people, quiet and beautiful place.
We are taking this awesome scenic route, instead of seeing “boring...
Aug:19 1900hrs Calgary
So we arrived in Calgary about half an hour ago. Now we had something to eat in Central City (i.e. downtown), and walked around a bit. Nav had just found out that a friend he lives up north with his husband, ON A FARM! We are going to stay up there with them. The town they live in is called Olds? Weird and strange, but exciting. Nav has a lot of photos from other places we have crossed. They are...

Just left Riding National Mountain Park..I think I wrote that wrong.
Ananthy has yet to upload her HUGE update about yesterday.
BUT…let’s just say, waking up beside a lake at 7am T.O time, WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!
Tonight, we will upload photos and the two journeys…yesterdays and todays.
Today we are heading towards Manitou Beach, SK. It’ll take about 6 hours.
Nav is...
Where we at?
WE ARE IN MANITOBA.
We have been driving on Hwy 1 for about half an hour. Saw wheat and canola farms. It’s raining like crazy.
We are getting gas right now, and are headed towards Riding Mountain National Park. That’s where we will sleep. Hopefully it stops raining.
More interesting updates from Ananthy, later.

Sunday August 16th - 1:00pm
Hi guys. We’ve been driving since around 12 am, heading toward Thunder Bay. The original plan was to do driving shifts of a few hours each but since Nav is sensitive to caffeine and downed almost two full extra-large black coffees, he ended up driving most of the night (i.e 6 hours) while Accah (Aarthy) and I woke up every hour to make sure he was still ok. Accah took the next shift at...
First Txt Post!
Hello everyone !! (including our parents, siblings, extended family, and friendlings)
I thought it would be appropriate to begin this here blog. Tomorrow Ananthy is attending a concert, and so our journey shall begin at the venue.
(via doce.ca)
That there, is the Molson Amphitheatre. We live in Brampton, and this venue is approximately 30 minutes away, in Toronto (assuming there is...
