heya….

have been away since a long long long time….has been busy with many things

In the midst of all tensions and work pressures there came an educatonal tour to Delhi and North India(shimla,manali,punjab,rajasthan)..Well…the moment we heard about the tour..we unanimously refused to go!!!But since it was compulsory and a requirement in the syllabus,we finally agreed.

Thanks to the railways…we had an amazing start..the train that was expected at 7.30 came at 10.30…after the long wait we boarded the train and as fate would have it..I got the most wonderful seat in the train-the one  beside the toilet .My teacher  has always told me to look at the bright side of things and the bright side here was that I could keep a watch on when the toilets are vacant and transmit  this valuable information to my friends ..well.. the noxious stimuli that I was exposed to during the journey anesthetized the olfactory area of my brain…

Once we reached our destination…we were welcomed and taken to our respective rooms..some were happy with the room size,some were not.some had issues with the lighting in the rooms and some others were not comfortable with the bath tubs!!!!!the rest of the tour  was wonderful with long distance night travels in busses,..fights for single seats,so that we could stretch ourselves and sleep..Airconditioned buses with sealed windows in manali and shimla….frantic search for loos…demands of dal fry  and sabudaana wadas from purely south indian cooks who were experts in rasam and curd rice ..the clash of roti versus chaawal…the never ending  shopping and then bragging about the price and quality of the things bought…the punctuality with  which schedules were followed.. the list is never ending.

In spite of all the differences in opinions and outlook,there were some who enjoyed the trip to the fullest,and I am one of them..well!!dont ask me the educational part of it..but the rest was too good!!!!heres a small video of our epic tour….
