Here I’m, finally, off to Québec City. Tithi and I planned this trip at the very last minute. Today is Friday and we decided to have this trip on Tuesday. Anyway, both of us were looking forward to this day to start our trip. We didn’t have much time to prepare as Tithi has her class to attend and I’m dead busy with office work. But we managed to get it all together. Packed up, woke up early (although I was hopping to have a good sleep over the long weekend).
Yes, it is long weekend in Canada. For Easter we’ve Friday as vacation followed by Saturday and Sunday. Anyway, this is our first trip to somewhere after we got married. Well, that’s not quite right. We traveled to Canada. Anyway, I’ve always heard that Québec City is a beautiful place. I hope the weather will be good. I’m connected to internet with the train’s on-board WiFi service. Just enjoying the views outside and writing this article.
I really needed this break. Both Tithi and I actually. It feels great to finally go out for a long trip. We’ve thought about it many times but never had a chance to do it. Here are some photos taken from the train so far….I’ll keep posting as my journey continues.

So here it is. There are lot more to it that I don’t know, but I will figure out step by step. Loving the unix based OS and finally glad that I am (personally) off the Window$ world.
I would like to thank my wife, Tithi, that she was really supportive in my decision to buy this expensive toy. Well this is the second expensive toy that I’ve bought in last few months; first was my Play Station 3.
I will try to post my experience with the Mac Book Pro as I keep using it. Thanks.
