I along with Farabi visited the wonderful Hanging Rock State Park in 14th May, 2022. The trip started with my first train journey in USA by Amtrack. We start our journey at 10 am and reached at Greensboro at 11:45 am. After that we headed towards the state park and it was 36 mile away from the railway station of Greensboro. The state park was awesome and consists of several trails and waterfalls. Definitely, it is impossible to go in every trails and waterfalls in one day. Therefore, we select two trails and waterfalls which are the main attraction of the park. The trails were serene but daring. We also visited the Pilot Mountain, which is 30 mins driving distance away from the state park. About Pilot mountain, I can say one thing is that you must visit here if you are a nature lover and loves mountain. We witness the rainbow for the first time in the mountain which makes our trip more enjoyable. The trip will stay in my memory forever.
Our FREEDM Systems Center research group organized a fish trip at Surf City Pierre, North Carolina in 22 April, 2022. Karen Autry made the things easy for us. It was a very enjoyable day. It was my first fish trip and I learn about fishing in the ocean for the first time. The Surf city beach was clean and wonderful and I enjoyed every bit of time. It was a great refreshing trip before facing the final exam of the semester. We also ate the sea food and they were delicious. Some moments of the tours are shared here. Keep seeing the beauty of it and makes a trip there if your time permits. I hope you all enjoy......
I visited Sri Venkateswara Temple at 121 Balaji Place, Cary, NC in 9th April, 2022. This is my first temple visit in USA. The Temple was dedicated to Sri Venkateswara, the god of wealth and well being. The Temple is modeled after the famous Sri Venkateswara Temple in Tirupathi in the state of Andhra Pradesh, India (information taken from Wikipedia). There are very few temple in North Carolina. One is at Morrisville and the other one is Sri Venkateswara Temple at Cary. Since the temple at Cary is near to the student of NC state, Sri Venkateswara Temple must be visited by the Hindu student at NC State. It gives a peace of mind. I shared some of pictures of my visit. Hopefully, everyone enjoy it....
