Vacation

I took a not so well deserved break and went to delhi two weeks back. I was supposed to reach there on 9th march 8:30 AM but thanks to official carrier of common sense I reached on 10th of march 2:30 AM. Picture on the left shows Bangalore airport's departure building. I clicked a few images before putting my camera back for the fear of being spotted as a terrorist planning an attack :)




Good thing about going home this time was the new car my parents had purchased. A shining beam blue zen LXI. Enthu of the new car made us plan a trip to rajasthan. We wanted to sample the expressway (actually we later realized its not a expressway) between delhi and jaipur. We found it to be a pretty good one with only problem being lot of places where you could take U turns. Haldiram in guragaon was a great place to eat before you step onto the highway.





On our way we took a break at a Rajasthan tourism motel. We only had some tea there and bought a couple of chocolates there but we found the people there amazingly well behaved and courteous. The highway pretty peaceful apart from the patches where there was some construction and both side traffic was put on the same lanes :)




In Jaipur we stayed with my dad's cousin and it was a fun stay for sure. Had great food and sampled some good whisky too :). My cousin told me about the 6 lane Jaipur Ajmer expressway and next day we set out to try it and visit ajmer too. The expressway was much better than the delhi jaipur highway and for those who have been to bombay pune expressway, its as good. This blurred image shows the highway at night.

I found ajmer more of a religious city. Will cover ajmer and the rest of the trip in the next post !
