Trip to tawang - Part 2


The worst and the best part of the journey was that it ended before it could start. Yes  guys...we all left the campus with dreams of tawang, snow and beautiful valleys in our mind and guess what, on reaching the bus stand we came to know about the curfew in Tezpur. Still we waited for 1 hr at the bus stand, looking at each other like asking what to do now? Actually no one wanted to go back to the rooms we left with so much hope and excitement. 

Soon Ashish came up with the idea of visiting shillong and Pranay appended it with "bikes". But that too was not acceptable to God, and we could not hire the bikes we wanted. Now again we started to stare at each other. And this time, we decided Gangtok to be the destination. We flew to the railways station at once. There we came to know that the train to NJP(West Bengal) is at 10:30 p.m. and it was only 4 p.m. . So we purchased the tickets and decided to roam in the city till then. 

So we kept the luggage in the cloak room of Vishal Mega Mart ( free as well as safe ;) )  and passed out time playing cards at the station, eating delicacies at Pizza hut and waiting for the train.

This was by far the most undecided and unplanned journey of ours.
