Tale of 3 Cities

 

 A few months ago, I wrote about another 'tale of 3 cities' which was more of tale of 3 countries … where I had breakfast, lunch and dinner in 3 different countries.

WELL, now my international travels have stopped and my passport is resting but the travel bug is still around albeit on domestic sectors. The first place my new job took me to was Ahmedabad. Since I had been to Ahmedabad, I wasn't so much excited. But now my travels take me to 3 cities which I have not visited earlier.

Gwalior, Sagar & Ujjain in the princely state of Madhya Pradesh – 3 days – 3 cities

This would actually be my first visit to MP.

I am actually excited about this aspect of my job - the India Travel part. I always wanted to travel across India but my earlier jobs have taken me to different countries in past 7 years but seldom would I need to travel to other cities.

 

 

 

Trivia - I was also at Indore (although very briefly) during this visit. I did not really visit Indore.
After spending the day in Ujjain, I rushed to Indore in the evening to catch the flight back to Mumbai.

 

So technically, I can even say I was in 5 cities over 5 days J

Mumbai – Gwalior – Sagar – Ujjain – Indore – Mumbai

Mumbai Local - First Class v/s Second Class

    It is an old joke that the difference in the first class and second class of the Mumbai local trains is that people in first class use deodorants and hence you are exempted from the smelly underarms while travelling. The mute point being; both class of travel experience a passenger overload during the peak hours and you are almost equally squeezed and pushed around in both. Of course, the seats in First Class are cushioned (unlike the hard seats of second class) but then that would make a difference only if you get to sit (which would be a likely probability only if you get into the train from the station it originates). My father holds a first class pass from Churchgate to Andheri (since past 7 years, ever since we moved to Andheri). He often travels by Second class in the evening. Strange, isn't it? This is why he does it … In the First class, there is an unwritten rule that on the seat, only the designated number of people (which is 3) will sit. No sq

Tongue Twister - V for Vendetta

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is it vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V." - V for Vendetta
