A Sunday afternoon walk

 After a sumptuous lunch at Chimpu da's place this weekend , we planned to walk down the Sarovar road to reach a theater near by. Rabindra Sarovar (Lake) which is adjacent to his apartment is a bliss to morning walkers and joggers in South Kolkata. Even we went there once , however, wasn't able take to the pain of  rising so early. Whenever I have been there always found it to be crowded but this Sunday it was left alone. Thanks to the culture of 'bhaat ghoom ' (siesta) in Bengal . Another reason ,could be cleaning treatment, undergoing in this piece of wetland these days.

City of Joy . 

On our way, we decided to visit their hall where they have conserved a few popular Durga idols of this year's puja. There I felt for the first time in this year that we are left with only few months to hit the huge fest again . 

 

A structure made of brass pots .

Wish if I could have spent that entire afternoon lingering around park ,watching those migratory storks and bald trees .

In the midst of such sedate surrounding , a fiery Simal (Bombax) tried to make a stretch, red carpet for us and as the shutter of my mobile zoomed , the group cried  "we are late , move on ! "

And moved on ......
