The dates mentioned above are of the holiday I went for…
20th May- Blore airport, with Aarti(my sister) waiting for our dear friend Mudamma, who is the master planner behind this trip.
1st destination Delhi more like a pit stop- so we land at the Delhi airport with bag and baggage and wondering where to go, so we get some information about the metro train, and head towards the Metro station in Dwarka. So we buy this metro pass which you can use for the whole day, 100/- for a card, that deducts the kms you traveled as you go along. Very cool.
So we head towards the closest mall (obviously, 3 women, what would one expect us to do other than that)
Rajouri garden the Lifestyle store. In the Metro train we behaved like real tourists, since we were super fascinated, considering the metro in blore seems like a distant dream. We clicked pictures from our mobile phones, and people in the train had a suspicious look, probably thinking, are these 3 women are capable of scheming a bomb blast, kinds.
Ok so we reach the Lifestyle store, and act like we’ve never been to a mall before. I think going out of your city, does that to people. So we did our bit, and due to a time constraint, we quickly headed back to our cool metro train. So at the station we as typical tourists looking all lost, I stopped a nice looking chap and said, we need to go to the New Delhi railway station. He was very unlike a typical Delhite( we all know, the reputation Delhi has, specially considering women)asked us to follow him, and was very kicked about the fact that we were from Bangalore.(wonder why) So we landed at the station, and we had to run across 6 platforms to the 1st one to board our train. And Aarti, who’s suitcase, was heavy, and had no wheels to drag it, was having a tough time… So I take her suitcase, and put it on my head, and walk through all the platforms. I had the boys at the subways, yelling at me “Coolie aye Coolie” nevertheless, we made it to the train, and were on our way to Jammu, our next destination.
