Day 1 - 14th Aug, 2015 - Pune - Delhi - Manali

Distance covered: 570 KM
Places visited: Delhi

We were waiting for this day for quite a long time, and once you wait for something very eagerly then you can understand the state of your mind :D.

Our another common friend Praveen said yes, and became the part of this trip, so we became 6. But Abhishek from our group could not join us, his grandmother was admitted in the hospital just before the day of our trip started. So at the end we were 5 only, but everywhere hotel was booked for 6 people, so one extra space will be there with us for the complete trip.

Now the partners are:

Amit (me)
Mannu
Praveen
Kaushik
Shashank

Finally I started from Pune and reached Delhi in the after noon, Shashank started one day before from Bihar via Train, Kaushik and Praveen took flight in the evening to reach to Delhi and Mannu was waiting for all of us in Delhi :-).

It was 8 PM on 14th Aug, 2015, we all met in front of ISBT, Delhi, my younger brother came there to say bye to me as he was also in Delhi. We had our dinner together and then the original fun started.

Me, Mannu and Shashank are the victim of motion sickness from childhood but still we always show courage to ride on the bus. Sometimes we find success, sometimes vehicle :P but we never loose our hope.

From Delhi to Manali, we had booked a HRTC Volvo Bus(Himsuta). Actually based on our search this is the mostly reliable service between Delhi to Manali. There was a delay in the bus timing on that day but finally it came and we were on the bus with a smile on your face.


With all the 26yrs of experience about motion sickness, we started to keep our body cool. But thanks to the driver who was driving the bus at 120 kmh on the highways, at least I could not sleep and was just watching the roads.



The day ended when everyone was sleeping except me n praveen with all the excitements in our heart and mind.

Next Day
