visit to haridwar n so far...

11.6.09

hi.
what a interesting story it will be when people will come to know that our return ticket is confirmed,even the hotel is booked already,but our ticket for Haridwar is still not confirm yet.Now we are in a situation where we have started our packing but not sure yet,whether those bags will be finally on the Doon express or not.

next day i just woke up without knowing what was waiting for me,for all of us.previous day AILA had just finished her deadly spell.all the tele communication was halted.we coudn't charge our mobile,network was not available,newspaper had not reached yet.it was like we were living in a dead planet.far from anyone's reach.can u imagine it was the day for us to get on the 3009 UP DOON EXPRESS.correction needed, actually not for us,for those three who were stuck to the thought whether they would get bored on the train alone or with the others. After lot of drama it was decided that we would go along with them though our ticket were not confirmed yet. it was decided that if the situation remained the same after we reached Howrah station then they would get on the train alone. that's final.

well, around 2:30pm(26th may) mashi,mesho n suvra di came with the tata sumo from duttapukur to pick us up.me mom dad n didi n rishi n mashi placed our luggages properly inside the sumo and then headed towards Howrah station.around 6:30pm we reached the howrah station and finally at 7:45 pm we were confirmed from the inquery office that our train ticket is confirmed while the train would start at 8:30pm.with some smiling faces we got on the train and took uor respected seats.

usually i like train journey.because i have visited puri,darjeeling,vijag after around 20 hours train journey. but this time it was not so short. this time our journey was about 48 hours approx. so at the last spell of the journey i felt really bored.i don't know about others, but rishi enjoyed the journey very much like i enjoyed on my first journey to puri.usually people say doon Express is not very punctual, but this time we were lucky.at sharp 7:30am on 28th morning our train reached Haridwar station.

we then picked up 4 rikshaws. this rickshaws were different. they were not similar to those one whom we usually see on our Bengal roads. they have some unique fashion,so people can seat very comfortably with all their luggages.thereafter we headed for our hotel Raj Delux.it was a nice hotel.
today up to this.
