Lovliest Trip




The so called 'off season' wasn't really one when we sneaked a cameo trip to Nainital this January. All one could think in the end was "How could this be an off season ?". But people follow people (read sheep follow sheep). That is why people end up flocking these places in summer.

Among the many, I'll list the 3 best memories of this wonderful trip.

1. Deciding 2 hours before departure that maybe I can chill (literally, coz the temperatures dipped to as low as -5 degrees) at Nainital.
2. Sleeping in every possible stance in a string of busses through a string of small towns.
3. Horse riding @ 5000 feet on the mountains on the worst and thinnest roads. And yes, with a lot of faith on the horse coz one wrong step would have taken us 5000 ft in 5 seconds.
4. The best ever . . . Playing and tumbling for hours like a kid with snow everywhere.
