On the go

Was on a whirlwind trip to Kota, Jaipur and Delhi last week. Varun's baraat at 12 mid-noon under the hot sun was the highlight at kota with colorful turbans and the raucous band which played kaala kauwa kaat. This song was a major hit during the last days at college. We set off to Jaipur next. 3 of us landed there without a cam. The Amer fort was really good. The rest of the historic places have caught up with the urbanization around. Must be tough to keep up with the latest trends being the capital city while trying to preserve the heritage.
Next stop was Delhi. Caught up with college chums Kitwa and Dipsy after almost 4 years.Saw the much talked about malls of gurgaon. Dint enter any though. what'd be new in a mall? Rajpath was nice. Delhi metro -very impressive. Looks like all the digging going on in Bangalore for the metro is going to be worthwhile. Bought some cheap shoes at Karol Bagh.
The train journey on the way back was real fun. They served food dot on the time. The AC's there you can sleep all the time. I could have spent another 3-4 days easily in the train.
