THE SUBJECTIVE MEANINGFUL TRAVEL..
AWAY FROM MOUNTAINS, SEAS AND JUNGLES!


"Let's go this Sunday, to this

CALM SLEEPING TOWN

2 hrs drive from our place and spend our holiday off from the routine. It's long time we visited this town. It has its own beauty and uniqueness and I'm sure you'll love this trip. Okay?"

I said thus and readied my family for the visit..

We started the early morning at 6 and moved in the direction of the

BEAUTIFUL PLACE OF OUR HEARTS..

On the way invariably a few stops were made with each stop carrying it's own freshness and importance, got refreshed and with those renewed energies continued our journey further..

"A close friend of mine stays in this town. He is from this place and totally lived in this environment almost for his lifetime. We'll surprise him by making a visit to his place just to say 'Hai!' It sure looks more funny and I'm sure he'll be very happy to receive us thus. Okay?"

I briefed my family..




Soon we were into the premises of our 

DREAM TOWN,
  • Visited the important sightseeing places, 
  • Stopped at our favorite restaurant for lunch, 
  • Had the ever loved tea on the road side restaurant 
  • Covered a lot of coolness and serenity 
And that way the day was truly felt great in the end by me and the family..

At 5 pm, I called on my friend at his residence but to our surprise the house was found locked. We were clueless on that for a while but soon firmed up that they might have gone out on some work..

The time was 6 PM..

"It's time to return. By the time we reach home with a stop over at our favorite coffee shop on the way, it'll be almost 9 pm!"

I said and the family agreed..

The return journey started thus and continued and in one hr's time we were at our favorite coffee shop..

As we entered the cafe and were about to seat ourselves comfortably in corner, a familiar voice was heard from the other corner..

'Yes.. It's my friend's voice.. What a surprise.. He is here with his family. I couldn't surprise him at his place but it's great I'm meeting him here!'

With great excitement, I moved on to the place saying aloud,

"Hello.. Dear! How are you? Surprise to see you here?"

The friend too instantly taken over by surprise, greeted me aloud with a firm hand shake saying,

"Hello, dear! What a surprise? How come you are here?"

Soon the families greeted each other and I said,

"Dear! We had a holiday trip to your town. Let me tell you.. It's a great visit for us and we thoroughly enjoyed our trip..

Sorry, Yaar! I wanted to surprise you by knocking on your door. I made a visit, but could see only your locked doors. Where have you gone? How come you are here now?"

"Yaar! It's long time we have visited your city. My family was very much after that I said,

'Let's go this Sunday, to this

BUSY CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS

2 hrs drive from our place and spend our holiday off from the routine. It's long back we visited this city. It has its own beauty and uniqueness and I'm sure you'll love this trip. Okay?'

I said thus and readied my family for the visit..

We started the early morning at 6 and moved in the direction of the

BEAUTIFUL PLACE OF OUR HEARTS..

On the way invariably a few stops were made with each stop carrying it's own freshness and importance, got refreshed and with those renewed energies continued our journey further..

'A close friend of mine stays in this town. He may not be from this place but totally lived in this environment almost for his lifetime. We'll surprise him by making a visit to his place just to say 'Hai!' It sure looks more funny and I'm sure he'll be very happy to receive us thus. Okay?"

I briefed my family..

Accordingly, I made a visit, but could see only your locked doors. So you were at my place!"

"That's nice of you.. By the way, how was your day?"




"Yaar! We were into the premises of our 

DREAM CITY,
  • Visited the important sightseeing places, 
  • Stopped at our favorite restaurant for lunch, 
  • Had the ever loved tea on the road side restaurant 
  • Covered a lot of hustle and bustle
And that way the day was truly felt great in the end by me and the family..

It was time to return, on the way we wanted to drop in at our favorite coffee shop and relax and it's great we met you people here!"

  1. I love these spontaneous journeys. Stopping at roadside joints to eat, drink and generally be happy is so wonderful. Excitement you must have felt seeing your friend at the coffee shop is priceless.

    1. I very much agree with you Abhijit.. Those travels have their own value in our lives.. But what inspires one in such a scenario is totally or partially different many times from that of others and each experience is unique to the personality.. Thanks for the good comment on the Post!
