I have not been a good blogger, as have not been able to post for quite some time now. Will continue the Nepal experience at later stages.
I am flying out of Delhi on Friday that is 15th of June. For past week the temperature in Delhi has become unbearable. It has been above 41 C all this while, it had crossed 44 C couple of days back. So anyplace outside Delhi is a welcome relief.
Even though I am going there to attend a friends wedding, which is scheduled for 19th of June in Siliguri.
You can see a picture of his, posing in a traditional Achkan. Even though this is not his wedding dress but he would be using it for some other ceremonies.

Raj, in an AchkanSince Siliguri is gateway to two beautiful places in India, I took this opportunity to see whatever I can. I had two choices, either Darjeeling OR Gangtok. But after much advice from various sources, I zeroed in on Gangtok.
This time again Naveen is the one who would be accompanying me. But we have 2 new companions, his wife Pooja and 1 year old boy, Chunnu. You can see both of them in the pic below.

Naveen's Wife Pooja and their child ChunnuSo as per the current plan, we would be landing at Baghdora airport on afternoon of Friday that is 15th June and from there proceed towards Gangtok in shared jeep. It would be late in the evening when we would reach there and hence would prefer to see local markets or simply stay in our rooms.
Next day we plan to hire a local taxi which would take us for 7 Point sightseeing trip around Gangtok. This will almost take entire Saturday. and on Sunday we plan to Visit Nathu-la. I have seen some pictures of it over the internet and find that place to be breathtaking. Monday we have kept as a buffer day, we have to see how the tot reacts to climate and travelling.
Finally on Tuesday we would be attending the wedding in Siliguri and on Wednesday we have our flight back home.
As of now these all are plans, and lets see how successful this trip is. I have seed most weired things happen at the last minute, so I am waiting with my fingers crossed !!
