One day before we had booked a cab for Airport drop, as we had the flight from Leh to Delhi and Delhi to Pune. Mannu and Shashank were with us till Delhi and Praveen had different flights because he joined this trip little bit late so could not get the same flight. He was first travelling to Jammu then Delhi then Pune.
Now the cab was there and I was just checking the room so that we don't forget anything. Meanwhile Mannu negotiated with the cab driver to drop us to Airport in exchange of 5 litres of Petrol, which was left from your reserved one.
We left hotel at 6 AM and I can remember clearly that I clicked one pic of a flower from the garden.
I was all the way thinking about this place, I am sure everyone else would have done the same thing, I did not want to come back as I really loved being there.
We reached the airport, entered and stood in a queue for security check after getting the boarding pass. I had never seen such a security check in my life, it took lots of time to complete everything.
Finally Praveen flew off after saying good bye to Ladakh and then it was our turn to say Good Bye Ladakh with mix emotions.
At the very last moment also there was still so much adventure because of the plane was flying over the mighty Himalayas which was so worth to watch.
Finally let me tell you the BIG CUP reason, in Ladakh area generally it remains cold and we do not drink water properly so this amount of tea helps to keep body warm and also put some water in the body.
We reached Delhi said Good bye to Shashank, who went to New Delhi Rly station to catch a train for Bihar.
I came with Mannu to his house in Gurgaon, Kaushik went to his relative house in Gurgaon. Again Me n Kaushik met on the airport to go to Pune.
We all safely reached to our home after 10 days of extreme adventure, That is really a proud feeling for all of us.
When I sit and think that what I have got out of this trip, then I can think of the following:
- Memories captured in 2000+ pics
- 50+ videos to remember our days always
- Unlimited breath taking scenes which we captured in our eyes.
- Strength & Patience to survive in difficult situations
- Thrilling experience of driving Royal Enfield
- Five fictional characters, which helped us to keep smiling in those 10 days
- Mannu as Maharaj
- Shashank as Senapati
- Amit as Mahamantri
- Kasuhik, Praveen as Praja
And so many other things, which can't be written in a single blog or conveyed, it is just to be experienced by yourselves.
With this note, our trip ended and we proudly say that we are a LADAKH RETURN.
