Blast From The Past

Hi I am back today I will tell you about my experience of visiting the Chhatrapati Shivaji Vastu Shanghralay
formerly known as the The Prince Of Wales Museum. I had alwayas wanted to see a museum and  my wish finally came true yesterday.As we reached  I saw a palace like building , it was the museum indeed. Just as we entered I saw a big stone with something inscribed on it my mother told me that earlier when paper was not invented people used stones as the main mode of communication. To my left was a beautifully carved ivory sculpture depicting Lord Buddha and his disciples. The room was filled with ivory and gold sculptures. We entered a room full of birds, there were flycatchers, sunbirds,orioles,cranes,kingfishers etc. I recognised quite a few birds that I may have seen in hilly or tropical areas. On the other floor we saw art galleries , articles worn by kings and queens precious stones jewellery etc. What grabbed my attention was a room full of porcelain items . We saw mughal miniature paintings , swords , daggers and other war equipment. My visit to the museum was great and I recommend all of you all to visit it.

Crytpo Knowledge


Hi! I am back after a long time, I was really busy. Today I am going to tell you all about the new book that I have recently read, its called THE DA VINCI CODE by Dan Brown. In the story our main protagonists Mr. Robert Langdon and Ms. Sophie Neveu (a cryptologist) are trying to decipher some baffling codes which they find next to the dead body of an old curator in the Louvre in Paris.The code leaves them thinking of the Fibonacci numbers and a priceless painting of a very famous painter. When they actually start solving the mystery they come across facts and truths that have been hidden for years. They are wanted for theft for murder escaping from the police they rech a friend's house where they come to know about the Priory Of Sion, they are dealing with the Opus Dei. Robert and Sophie  have to race against time to crack the mystery. I recommend this book to all who like reading about mysteries. Here's the code see if you can solve it :-
13-3-2-21-1-1-8-5
O, Draconian devil!
Oh, lame saint!
P.S. Find Robert Langdon
