Cant really get that scenic beauty out of my memory.Those hills, the slopes, the clouds hanging from the sky seemed as if i could almost touch ‘em. I wondered if  its jus too much for a day’s walk on the Mall Road in Shimla.

We went by car from Delhi to Shimla.On the way to Shimla we crossed Kalka .From Kalka itself the nature starts showing its beauty . Though it was summer , yet jus one day of rain and cloudy atmosphere made our journey to Shimla a freezing cold one. We were shivering as we had’nt put on any jackets on the way, the rain was unexpected and so was the chilling climate. From Delhi to Kalka we managed the cold breeze without the sweaters .My cousin sisters n myself were cuddling close to each other in the car. But once we got down to have something for breakfast at Kalka at the restuarant …we put on jackets. A quick breakfast of fried eggs, bread n chocolate milk  is what I opted for, since I was sick of havin no other option for roti except naan ki roti most of the time in Delhi. And then it started drizzling again…Well , we had experienced  another extreme climate from where we were coming,Delhi .

           Now whr was I…yep the hills…. As we reached Shimla, we were looking for current bookings to be made in the hotel as we had’nt planned visiting this place after Delhi’s stay. Untill we checked in the hotel ,we huddled close by hoping that the reservations are’nt full in it. With the hand-carry with each one of us , we looked like a flock of birds together , waiting anxiously for their next flight.

After settling down in our respective rooms we freshened up and our family met up in the hotel’s reception and were set to go out for a spreeee . Looking at the hills and the people around felt like its a heaven with hard working yet good looking people residing in it.

Yeah thats what it is, people in these kind of regions have to toil and sweat a lot , as they always have to climb the slopes to reach a certain destination , which is without no other mode of transport except , ofcourse for their own feet. Atleast to reach the Mall Road a good pair of legs with strong feet is mostly  the requirement..hhehe.

The serene, solitary Shimla reigning on the top of the hills is really the “hot-spot” for tourism, but unfortunately the roads are’nt tidy enough …at least for we hyderabadi’s who’ve become accustomed to cleanliness and hygeine in our city , it seemed so.

A certain book shop caught my fancy walking down the Mall Road . We then walked into Barista…one of the only places i could find similar to my city. Oh my gawwwwd Barista looked like the (“supposed-to-be”) coolest coffee shop in Shimla, while its Cafe Mocha which is preferred in Hyd. Anyways, this only shows how much Shimla has to improve with respect to infrastructure and hygeine.

Well ofcourse  the exotic sceneries , the breath-taking hills, the humble residents with their awesome hospitality, the cool breeze, the feeling of being far away from the hectic schedule are the few things that I miss about Shimla. Its meant for a perfect vacation in summer. I could go on watching the beauty that nature had to offer there till the eternal infinity!!!
