Arabian Sea to Ganges

The countries with coastlines on the Arabian Sea are Yemen, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Iran, Pakistan, and India.
Juhu a suburb of Bombay is famous for its sprawling beach. Juhu beach is situated on shores on Arabian Sea . Juhu houses famous theatres like Prithvi, luxury hotels like JW Marriott and bungalows of many Bollywood stars.

On a pleasant evening while strolling on Juhu Beach without shoes in cool sand reminded me of days in school roaming in the cool sands of Sangam. Sangam is the meeting point of three rivers Ganga,Yamuna and Saraswati.You would wonder what I am talking about.Yeah it is about Allahabad where I spent childhood and teenage. I grew up with many dreams and imaginations which were so quite real that they never looked like dreams.

Allahabad has a very old history , however talking about Jawaharlal Nehru who was born in Allahabad will not sound all that old.
The Ganga, the river of India flows across Allahabad. Until the start of the 18th century, the Ganges River ends its journey into the arabian sea.

Little Italy Multi-Cuisine Joint in Bangalore

Located in posh area on Indiranager 100 ft road this Ristorante Bar serves authentic vegetarian Italian cuisine .It has an array of delicacies to offer. Risottos, pastas, gnocchi, bruschetta, garlic bread, fettuccini, olive oil and oregano, bread with tomatoes lightly drizzled with olive oil and garnished with basil, escarole dressed with fresh lemon juice.The ambience is cosy and unpretentious

It gives us the option of eating out amidst the bamboo trees.There is a sitting area on the outside where small lamps have been kept on the tables giving the place a nice, soothing look.

I tried, the classic, thin crust pizza ,its simply superb.After an unsuccessful attempt to try cocktail(mix of rum, gin,tequila,vodka prob) which i didnot enjoy as usual, friends say i try a Fruit Punch instead.

Transgender

I found gender identity an interesting topic which leads to another historically recent topic transgender.

Transgender a post-feminist symptom is generated by the slow withering away of what we know of today as 'woman'.Transgender is an innovation which challenges the traditional gender roles associated with sexism, homophobia and domestic violence.

Question by Slavoj Zizek 'Why is woman a symptom of man?' reflects the fantasy which is 'femininity' tells us more about men than it does about existing women.
