I had some wonderful time last week at uncle-aunt’s place in Delhi…not in Delhi-6.. but in Janakpuri - once referred to as the largest planned residential colony in Asia. Roshni and me decided to take the Train-route for Delhi rather than flying there… (Now I am sure that this would raise a few questions about the recession-impact etc etc, but I would not want to deviate from the topic!!)…. We had been thinking of taking the Rajdhani Train as had been hearing about their services… The train service didn’t disappoint much though food could have been much much better..
The train dropped us at Nizamuddin Station the following morning, from where my cousin took charge of taking us home safe… After exchanging the customary pleasantaries, the lunch and some rest, we took off for the main agenda for the day . SHOPPING !!! My better half took charge as the day ended with my hands heavier (with bags) and pockets lighter…
Sunday, we went for a local sight-seeing and were found at various tourist destinations posing for the perfect-poses !!! My cousin got some self photo-shoots done for orkut!!
Then, the working week started (Basically, I missed on the main part – I was in town for some official work rather than holidaying) .. I was busy at work throughout the day for the next four days and came home sitting in Delhi-ricks amidst traffic for almost more than an hour daily (This traffic thing never leaves me, be it Mumbai or Delhi!!)
Then came the weekend…. We decided to venture out of Delhi.. on to some hill-stations to cool-off… after considering and debating various alternatives, we zeroed in on Shimla… more so, because of its proximity to Delhi... We stayed in Shimla for Friday and Saturday and came back to Delhi by Saturday late night..
Finally, after enjoying the vibrant Delhi and slow-n-cool Shimla, we came back to our own aamchi Mumbai .. Home-coming always seems special.. even though you are out only for just about a week!!
The post already gone too long and I would hate to read long-boring travelogues.. So I stop here just summarising the entire trip…. Would post more details separately….
