Crazy 6 days..

The last 6 days have been a rush.....crazy, fun, euphoric and adventurous!! We started our holiday (if u can call such an hectic schedule one!) on 18th July....and have been in a spin ever since. Our plan for these 6 days was to chill out, relax and just enjoy each other (thats the reason we left Kavin with maa in Ald).........but like always we went overboard and squeezed evrything we could into our tiny schedule!!

We started with Sridi and did the darshan of Sai baba....all happy and ok....but when we came out and Aby fiddled in his pocket for the wallet to give donation.....voila!....Gone!! We had been pickpocketed!! Then started the anxious rush to cancel all our credit and debit cards. Driving license, pan card....all taken! Thankfully, we had some cards which were not in the wallet and thus we wer able to survive the rest of the days.....we still counted our blessings and thot that maybe this incident had happened to avert some bigger-unknown-ominous happening (ever the optimists!) So cheerfully we proceeded further in our Journey...onward to Pune!!

The road journey from Shridi to Pune was breathtaking....never knew such landscaping existed in India!! Absolutely green-hilly terrain, with cool breeze, constant drizzle and a cloudy overcast. The horizon was visible in so many shades...starting with dark grey, white, blue and merging into the greenery below!! wow!!

We reached Pune after a 5 hour drive and the mad rush started...!! From squeezing in to meeting all our 9 friends (scattered along the length and breadth of Pune)...to midnight get-togethers..to visitng Lonavala...Khandala and Ambey Valley (omigod! what a heavenly abode)....pata nahi where the days vanished? Had we decided on relaxing? on taking it easy? on enjoying each other? hmmmm....everything happened but that! But we enjoyed all the same....again one of those holidays which leave you totally exhausted and you have to take another one to alleviate the exhaustion of the previous one!!!
