Thank you for stopping by my blog. This is my first dip into the blogging trench, started out of my curiosity to know what actually is a blog. I try to put here my readings from various sources; books, blogs, sites. I also grab stuff from here & there and try to showcase it in my own style here. If you'd like my scribblings, please subscribe to my full text RSS feeds.


Currently I am experimenting a few new features on my blog, like Peekaboo and Post Summary; the reason for the slight distortion you see. I am hoping to frame up these soon, please bear with me!




Dining at a world class hotel is a passé. Doing it underwater is in. It is definitely going to catch up a craze for everyone who dreams.

The below picturs are from the Ithaa Undersea Resturant – the world’s first and only aquarium style restaurant. This restaurant is located 5 metres below sea level and is owned by the Hilton Group. In a spectacular setting on the Indian Ocean, the Hilton Maldives Resort & Spa is the ultimate romantic destination offering sophisticated barefoot luxury: stunning tropical islands surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty and sparkling ocean. It is indeed a marvel at 360° views of reef and marine life, sip champagne cocktails and sample Maldivian-Western fusion cuisine at this spectacular restaurant.








And as if this were not sufficient, guess what!!! Lodging underwater is next. Naaah, is it possible? Yes it is indeed. A couple of resorts are being decked up which would serve as the world's first underwater resorts.

Poseidon Mystery Island is the first of its kind coming up shortly at Fiji Islands. Poseidon Mystery Islands compromises of approximately 225 acres and is about a mile long.

Poseidon boasts of the world's first and largest underwater suite: Nautilus Suite spread over 1000 square feet.
