land ahoy!

nothing unusual about this ship...docked at the kolkata harbor, under the azure skies...

now the bigger picture....
actually, the ship is docked on the rooftop!! a wonderful piece of architecture and someone's great imagination. i came across this house when i visited my aunt who stays in behala. the house is a local attraction and popularly called "jahaj baadi" or the 'ship house'. a landmark you cannot miss...
infact, when i entered the lane looking for the banerjee residence - i asked a 'bhadralok' for directions.
"the corner house bang opposite the jahaj baadi" - he answered!
