Summer Travel #1: Champaign, IL

               My summer started off with Arjun convincing me and Swami to drive with him to Champaign, where he finished his Masters a year ago at University of Illinois. It was going to be a relaxing weekend with lazing on the couch, watching reruns of the Games of Thrones episodes, hanging out at Murphy’s, and meeting new and old friends on the list of things to do. Can’t complain, right? To add to this list was sampling of new oriental delicacies.


                Oh! I forgot that we were actually there for Raylan’s graduation walk at the University. There was a sea of blue at the ceremony! Congratulations to Ray on receiving a Master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering from one of the top universities for engineering education. And then there was good food to celebrate. It was nice to meet Ray’s parents here in the US.

                At the end of the weekend when we finally reached West Lafayette, we dropped Arjun off at his place and drive into a ditch off State Street... FANTASTIC!
