Trip cancelled

The awaited trip to Kashmir has been unfortunately cancelled! :'(

Kashmir

اگر فردوس بر روے زمین است همین است و همین است و همین است

Agar firdaus bar roo-e zameen ast,
Hameen ast-o hameen ast-o hameen ast.

If there is a paradise on earth,
It is this, it is this, it is this.

                                                                          - Amir Khusrau

The Persian poet Amir Khusrau is supposed to have written this couplet having seen the beauty of Kashmir. It is to this piece of heaven on earth that wanderlust takes us in the month of December. From the December 3, 2012 to December 12, 2012 the gang has planned a visit to Srinagar.

Counting down....

The first post...

Hello World!!!

The beginning of a blog that hopes to chronicle the adventures and travels of a bunch of friends and share them with the world. With the hope of putting down in words, pictures and other assorted media, the experiences on their travels and their tales of fun, merry and "desi-style masti", we kick off this blog...

The Road goes ever on and on
    Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
    And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
    Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
    And whither then? I cannot say.

- J R R Tolkien

P.S. Future post in this section will contain details of the gang and possibly a short bio of each!
