So let’s continue from where we left .

I had a look at it and Gurdeep my brother from another mother, messaged was I interested in going to Shivpuri, Rishikesh, and I said yes! yes! yes!    Zirakpur Kids   started the journey on 23rd-May-2015 06:00. It was a sunny day. After 90 minutes of Journey , our stomach started producing strange noises and we took our first halt ahead of Kala-Amb. We chomped aloo Parantha layered with Nutrila (which I don't like) along with tea. Somehow I felt that Parantas were made from leftover vegetable of past day but it didn't matter as ADRENLAINE of journey was high. Sun started to rise and journey was just getting started. I was expecting the madness to tap soon and it did. We entered Utrakhand and to freshen up stopped at a resort.     Our asses were tired. It was a good resort, we used the washrooms to the maximum and sneaked away once we are done. When we left waiter of resort watched
