we reached chennai at 8.40pm..in time to catch the train for delhi at 10pm from another station...went to the station..had diner...and boarded the train to delhi..to home...it was too early for all of us..we were a grp of 5 to sleep...it was jus 11pm..so we talked..chatted..pulled each other's legs..and were up till abt 1am..then i went to my berth...switched on my laptop..saw a few episodes of friends and then finally dozed off at arnd 3...
got up at 10 next day..lazed arnd...had breakfast...gossipped and then finally went to my favorite spot..the door of the train...stood there for more than an hr..got the wind blowing through my face...its an awesome feeling...wind gushin at u at more than 120kmph...and u leaning out...as the day went by...we crossed central india...took some more pics and a video....
and now the video...well i took it leaning out...enjoy the moving train :)
and so the journey went on...another night..the chill increased as the train moved north towards New Delhi...and finally 6.30am on the 9th..i reached delhi...and the feeling was awesome...u knw..my city...my home..my delhi..n its good to be back...
P.S - I reached home n read in the newspaper abt the ban being suspended on Harbhajan Singh and the Aussie team being asked to behave by Malcom Speed (ICC chief)...damn..i am happy..its time the Aussie Cricket team realized that they just cant say anything and get away..world over they are being criticized for that..Ponting the Punter u outta be careful mate...
cheers!!
