In Bengal we have a mythology that during the durga pujo Devi durga comes to her father's place to spend 4 days with her parents.She comes along with all her 4 children- Kartik ,Ganesha, Laxmi , Saraswati .Her husband " mahadeb " is too busy to visit his in-laws place.Till today there is a ritual that daughter's have to visit their parents place during the pujo .In Bengal the food plays a major role in this festival.You will find awesome sweet dish and fish during these days.

Last Saturday we went to Aamby valley along with my office team. It was a amazing trip and we really enjoy a lot. This place is nicely made, but unfortunately the creator of the place have a clear mindset that this place should not be easy accessible by all. Many of my friends went over there before but were not allowed to enter. Anyway, lets proceed; We started from pune around 10am and we reached over there around 12.30.We went there by bus.Some of my teammembers went by car it took only 1.30 mins for them to reach from pune to "aamby valley".After reaching there we checked into our cottage and freshenup and headed for lunch.Lunch was quite good specially i liked the sweet dish.

Abhishek,my husband registered his number in that mobile-tracking software long ago.As soon as i lost my mobile i tried to call on my number to figure out where i left it but the mobile was not reachable.

Similarly as soon as that fellow inserted his sim the phone send a message to Abhishek from that number and he got the number of that person. After having some hotted discussion with the fellow, ultimately i was able to get my mobile back on the very next day morning. I was very happy and relaxed. So this is something that the
