New Delhi visit was carried out by me and one of my close friend
Mr Anil Kumar in the midist of the cold December in 2016. Even though a period
of one year has been elapsed I am writing this short diary even after going to the
rear point of my memory.
It was only a five day visit, starting in the early morning of a cold December from
Thiruvanantha puram air port by Indigo
airlines en-routed to Bangalore and then connection flight to New Delhi. We
reached New Delhi air port by 2 in the afternoon almost 6 degree was the
temperature there at that time and that too decreased to 4 and then to 2
degrees by the time of our return journey , within five days. From the airport
we hired a taxi and went to Panickers tourist home in Karol Bhag,the best place
for a Malyalee to stay for two three
days with fantastic Kerala food and neat hosting by the panickers team
providing with good blankets, room
heaters and all in reasonable rent .
The next day morning we went for sight seeing in Panickers bus. Traveling
was heavy for two day's scheduled with specific time span at each point. All
most all places in new Delhi and Agra
were covered by us in two and half days. We being both males with not so much
difficulty to walk,we were able to cope up with the plan of our Guide,
regarding time management, after taking necessary photographs we wanted.
