November 2005, was something different. Three years down the line, a lot has changed. The stature as well as the status of those who were once on the train together, heading for Andhra Pradesh. The tour started in an ebullinece of shear brilliance of joy and feel good. It was winter in the air, starting from Howrah station. The 0655hrs Falaknama felt so blessed, so auspicious, bringing in the thoughts of another 5 years back, when in Standard X, I bode my school party to enjoy a 9 days extended tour to North Bengal. Things happened so fast... so "rough". To give it a thought, I found myself at the periphery of all the matters, gelling the various people well and various points of time.
September 2000 and November 2005 resulted in the zeal to move out, the Dil Chahta Hain style, which had taken place on three instances through out the post graduation days in February 2007, August 2007 and then the biggie in January 2008, going to Digha ( 2days), Diamond Harbour ( 1day) and then to GhatShila (4days). Looking forward to another outing in January/February 2009. Out of all the experiences, of which my personal favourite is the sea, I can bet that the hills and the vales are best places to go towards the end of winter, and that too on a full moon.
Its a good idea to ponder over those travel experiences, infact re-state somethings, in a new labelled section called Tour Diaries. The articles can also be obtained in the Travel labels... Look out... for some short get aways...
