"Heaven" is the second word for gangtok. 18 Mar. 09 morning, me and rahul both set for trip to darjeeling, our flight at 10:25 and we don't have confirmed STA (staff ticket), it has not been made yet and we are happy that flying again for some trip. I know how we both of us ran that day and somehow on last second got our STA signed and finally got tickets at 10. Thought still we have 25 minutes and can manage as we did. The good thing was we went in Business class, well it has its own charm but due to non - availability of inflight entertainment, last half an hour was boring.
Anyways now we are in Bagdogra from where we have to go to darjleeng, no hotel was booked and we were not aware where and how to go. Somehow got some information from Bagdogra (jetairways) staff and reached bust stand from where buses were available to many small cities near by it, even for Nepal. While searching bus to darjeeling, we got some travek agent who told us about bad situation about darjeeling and convinced for gangto, and after seeing it in pics we agreed to go. So lately at around 8, we reached there and was tierd and had really very bad food there and slept hoping that tomorrow it will be a great day as we will be going to explore gangtok, an unplanned city. Here I want to tell you we got room for 400 per person per day where food was included.
Next morning, a lovely day to start and good thing was that I got something good to eat "poori aalo" it was well prepared as people here generally eats fish due to cold temperatue but I am veg. and was happy to get veg. We started our journey and we were going to "Yumthang" a lake, or place river covered with ice all over. It took around 5 hrs to reach there but in between really saw few beautiful places as was looking like that we entered some painting competetion hall as surroundings were cool. Atlast reached there and saw the beautiful place as was described in pic, we saw earlier. From there we paid to go to "Zero Point", a place where temprature is Zero, we wait there for only 10 minutes as diesel or car was about to freeze, but i should say the place that was. I havent seen such beauty in my entire life and dont think will ever get chance to see.
We stayed Yumthang for a day, then next day back to "gangtok" which was around 6 hrs drive away from Zero point. It was 8 at night when we reached out hotel, and didnt' get time to see loacal of it but what we had seen last day was something really amazing. we had food and slept as next day have to catch flight from Bagdogra > Kolkata > Delhi.
Next morning, did shopping for an hour and left for delhi. God's grace we got seats at kolkata as flight was overbooked. Reached delhi at around 2045 and joined duty from 2100hrs. Lol was a great exp. as enjoyed and worked too. Thanks to Jet Airways. Labels: gangtok, trip
Well new year, should say much much better starting then the last year. 2008 was pain for me, starting was like that someone has thrown me in hell, or a place worse than hell. I know what i have been in that year. Till april life was mess, nothing went my way but a good thing is that i got a JOB. 13th Jan. 09 went to trip to pune, as planned we went to "Shirdi" first stayed there for a day, amazingly got a room for Rs. 200, so cheap. Karan T. is a good chap, you can enjoy his company, atleast I enjoy very much. We were accompanied by a couple, dont want to comment on them as they were more on honey moon trip it looked.
After Darshan of "BABA" we went to shani shingur temple
left> karan T. and right is karan A. can say karan karun karan were on the trip ;) I know my stomach is out there like a preg. women but please dont laugh wil surely control : Here everyone have to take bath first then go for the Darshan os "Shani Maharaj". After visiting temple we went to pune which is 500 kms away from shirdi. Took 5 hours to reach Pune and there stayed at friend's house (karan t's cousin) and couple took room on rent for a day. From there I called "Vibhav" he is a friend who helped me and a great astrologer, motivated me a lot, thanks to him. We had few bites in some hotel (food was awesome), enjoyed few hours of meet. Vibhav looks cool, 6ft tall black handsome guy. His laugh is too funny, hehehhehe i lauh on his laugh :P Well day was over , was damm tierd and went to sleep as soon as see bed.
A new day, with bright sun eating your skin (pune is near to equator). There had delecious breakfast then went for shopping, had few sweets as nothing else was availabe which is called speciality. Time passed like anything that day, had to catch flight at around 5 and it was 1'0 clock when we planned to see local of pune. No problem, we were hungry so went for lunch, I dont have words the food I had. It was awesome, just paid 60 bucks and had a lot, as it was like eat as much as you can, 3 different vegetables, unlimited chapatis and rice, then followed by sweet dish, Oh that's also eat as much as you want. God its 3'o clock rush... pack your bags we have to catch the flight.
I realized that I missed something in pune, there was a snake's zoo. I love to watch that but Ghosh ! i dont have time and have to join office very next day. But anywyas i enjoyed my trip a lot, it was fun as was mine first trip with my friends. Looking forward to enjoy more and to various other places...
