Those 12 Days…

Here is a brief summary of things that happened in those 12 days I was out of town(photos in a later post)

Day 1 – Landed in Delhi. Lots of people kept looking at our group at both airports… fair enough its not daily that you see small planes traveling to another city in a big one :P The city looked much more duller than I had ever seen it… Dont know if its the pollution thats causing it :( Waited for 3 hrs as the organizers tried to scramble a taxi that could fit all our stuff in it. Stayed overnight at a nice guest house in Gaziabad.

Day 2 – Traveled to Agra and got settled in nicely

Day 3-8 – The event! Lots of things surprised me in these few days. mostly in where we were wrt to the rest of the world. Saying “World” is not an exaggeration as people from all over the world(Germany, France, China, Japan, Australia, America and India) were at the event. Got some priceless advice and even had the opportunity to see some of the best in the field at work!

Day 9-10 – Back to Delhi and then travelled to Shimla. Our driver(to Shimla) was pretty quick and we were there by about early evening :P Love the feeling of chilly hilly places.

Day 11-12 – We visited Kufri and Narkhanda. There was melting snow at Narkhanda and my colleagues were delighted, I was the only one in the group to have seen snow before. Tried our hand at skiing… Much tougher than it seems, but could do a decent job after about 20 min of falling on my butt :D
Stayed two nights at the golf course at Naldhera in nice log wood cabins! The sleep that I was getting in this trip was simply awesome… Quiet literally slept like a log of wood :P

Day 13 – Returned to Delhi and stayed overnight. Visited the gorgeous Lotus Temple and Qutub Minar, Waited 3 hrs for the delayed flight and reached home late at night :P

Ps: Have zipped past many awesome moments in the trip hopefully will make separate posts for each one later :)
