Achievement of the week - My first long drive ever

I want to write a lot of things today, but I won't. Not because I have anything better to do right now but because I am lazy. Another thing some you with keen eyes will note that, I have been writing almost 1 post per month. Only thing I can say about it is that it is not intentional. I want to write as much as possible but sometimes I don't have ideas and other times I don't have the will.

But today I am going to go against my will and put up something because it would be unfair to this blog if I don't write anything here after my 4 days of vacation. For those of you who don't know, I am currently staying in US for a short term on a short business trip and it was a long weekend here in US. On this long weekend, I drove from my place to Washington DC and back which is around 6 hours on non stop and non traffic drive and which has become approx 10hrs drive with stops and plenty of traffic. So essentially I drove for at least 20 hours during last 4 days and still after that had time and energy to write this piece. But the thing about driving in US is that it is not as tedious as driving back home. With auto transmission vehicles only thing you need to worry about is accelerator ( "Gas pedal" as they call it here) and that too is not much of worry since for a big part of journey you traffic is flowing at a constant pace and during that part you can put the car on cruise mode and viola! gas pedal problem is solved until the time you apply the break.

I found this driving as one of the most interesting part of my trip since minimum disturbances from outside world, nice cool air-conditioning, comfortable seating coupled with good music and beautiful outside view, I found driving very relaxing and pleasurable.

Other thing that gives me pleasure about this trip was even though I learnt driving very recently(those of you who have read previous post will know that i learnt driving a car in January) I had the confidence to go on this sort of adventurous road trip alone and that too in US. I have not gone on a more than 2 hours drive in India ever.

Other than that nothing much worth mentioning here on this blog happened on this trip. I realize post is a bit crappy and lacks quality but I don't have energy to think more and put more effort in this post. Howevr I will make it up by publishing a new, better post soon
