       It was decided that I would be driving my car in the night from Delhi to Vrindavan.Although I had never driven the car at night but I had to agree.My brother-in-law was driving the other car and I was following him.We had to reach the ISKON temple at Vrindavan at 5.00 am in the morning to attend the morning prayers.I drived fast but I was not able match up to my brother-in-law car speed.He stopped the car and told me"Bhaiya, you are driving very nicely but we need to get down to Vrindavan at 5am in the morning". He asked me to step aside and his friend reached for the driver

Jaipur - The pink city

        A visit to Jaipur was on the cards for many days but the city kept me waiting till many days. Last week I had the chance to visit the royal city of Jaipur. We travelled from Delhi to Jaipur by road and we drove through the highway in our car. The roads were in excellent shape and except for some jams and few toll gates the journey was smooth.

        We arrived late in Jaipur around 11 pm in the night. The first thing that caught our attention were the gates build around the city.We drove through the city not knowing where to go. The map that we were carrying was a of little help as it didnt show the roads clearly. We were asking for directions but Jaipur has so many choupar that we got confused. Choupar are roundabouts made like game of choupar.

Gangtok

Sikkim lake

                                                                               My visit to Sikkim started when one fine day, my father asked me to get ready .I asked him for what should I get ready, he told me that we were going to Gangtok. My father had a meeting in Sikkim and I was going along with him. I was so thrilled at that moment, I had never been to any eastern state of India and now was my chance to explore the beauty of Sikkim. My friends were going to Manali at that time but I choose to keep my appointment with Gangtok. I had never traveled by aero plane and this was going to be my first ride across the clouds. The tickets to Bagdogra airport had been booked in advance by my father. I was excited about the tour and more so because of the ride in the plane.

It was my chance my chance to visit the history again in Delhi. I went to buy books from Nai Sadak and while returning from there ,I took a rickshaw to reach the bus stand. The rickshaw moved from the small lanes of Old Delhi making way in the maddening crowd. The smell of tasty food was enticing me but i just maintained my calm looking at my belly. All of a sudden a massive piece of architecture emerged from the congested lanes and my heart knew what to do.
