Nainital

ghoome fire
daroo sharoo
khaana peena
boating voating
gappe shappe
cawfee vawfee

achy bums
dizzy heights
crystal waters
chinar leaves
foggy breath
silver oaks

a walk in the clouds...

coincident????? am just back from an awresome trip to mountains in rains(shimla, really) and cant help but relate to more than half the expressions mentioned here......

here's my quick list!!!!
shimla:

him ka anchal
boondon se baatein
bhutta chai parathe
shawls rajai heater
badal dhuaan dhoop
memories in making
life is beautiful :)

haha! cant match urs :)
when were u in nainital???? recently???? its one of my fav hill stations (after shimla) for the simple reason that its one of the rare ones in north that has a lake right there in the midst of the town ........it adds such beauty to the whole place..........
guess my heart is in mountains :)

if you could, leave your name the next time around...

moi...you bet, i was actually thinking of writing something more bout the hills...they're a most wonderful creation..i was there the last weekend...12, 13 aug...had to make it shorter than i would have liked...but it was wonderful anyways...next time around its gonna be shimla...but ive liked dalhousie too, especially when you go on treks around the place,there is so much to explore...

havent been to dalhousie b4...maybe next time :) tho' trekking is not made for faint hearts like mine :DDDDD
i almost collapsed climbing all those stairs in shimla.....for once i hated the way i ve been pigging out on parathe here.......the feeling was short lived tho........

i wish terrorism had not spread its tentacles so deep in kashmir.......i ve faint but lovely memories of pahalgam/gulmarg/jammu from childhood........wish i cud see jhelum once again in its total glory :(

crazy!!! i m beginning to sound like those silly chatter-boxes!!!!! IGNORE :DDDD

Kunal said...

i too am not so confident of my trekking abilities now...no parathas..just a lot of beer...lol...but hope to get it back in the coming months...a good routine...

yeah kashmir is like the aim right now...and ti can still be explored, inspite of the fear...you could check out www.oktatabyebye.com...this guy went on a 15 day tour of the place....ladakh, kashmir valley, et all....found the concept very interesting...check out his snaps.....http://www.oktatabyebye.com/apurv_diaries.asp?loc=Nubra-Valley...tc
