The day Mom & Dad arrived Melbourne -17th Nov 2010

The day Mom & Dad arrived Melbourne -17^th Nov 2010: We reached airport at 8pm for the scheduled flight arrival of 8.35pm.Both of us were excited to receive mom & dad from airport, however our excitement led to impatience when saw the flight has been delayed by 1 hour. We kept on watching the clock & crowd .We noticed that there were 8 flights arriving at the same time. Slowly we saw the clock ticking 9 pm and our anxiety levels raised watching the flight arrival timing changed to 9.05 .Five past nine in the night the flight status changed to landed and we were like “Finally”. Assuming mom n dad would take their own sweet time to come to baggage collection area we held ourselves back from calling. After 20 mins or so, we gave a ring and for a surprise dad’s ever green “TATA DOCOMO” rang. We heard from them that they are still at luggage carousel. Finally, after a long wait mom n dad came out .We saw that mom has tied her old and favourite scarf, which she had worn while Sravan was born. Both of them not tired of journey but wait had caught cold due to the flight AC. We took mom & dad to Villa Hut to have HOT Indian Chai Latté. We ordered 2 Indian spicy chai latte extra hot and a macadamia cookie. Mom expected chai to be served in the small glass as in Indian hotels but to her surprise they were give in coffee Glasses which was too much to drink .Hence we had to share that. They felt a little de-strained after that hot chai.We headed off to our home in a taxi, reached home close to 11.30 pm. With all the home remedies to fight the Melbourne cold , mom and dad went to sleep at 1 am after dinner and a small chat.
