Travel to Aurangabad!!!


Travel to Aurangabad!!!

This is one of my official trips. Of all the earlier travel, this one was little pressure-less. I dont know whether, it is because of my thoughts or it happened to be so on its own. And I dont want to analyze the reason as well.

When I was asked to go to Aurangabad, I felt like going into my 8th or 7th standard history. Because, I remember 'studying' about this place. Obviously, we don't like history much and we don't remember what we have studied. I include we here, though thr r definitely exceptional cases, who love studying history. I feel there is a difference between knowing and studying.

I also have another practise. If I go to a new place, I generally know from others or read about and understand what is special. I am not going to mention what is the general specialty about Aurangabad like historical place, its becoming auto-cluster after Pune and Nashik.... etc etc. But one thing, I have noticed is the roads and streets are broad here. I have been to many cities and its highway is definitely broader than normal roads. However, the interior streets and connecting roads are also broader than the other city roads whatever I have seen so far.

The actual trip has served the purpose, as expected.

Then back to Pune. A couple, with a child aged 1 year or so, is sitting beside my seat. Whenever I see a child, I get excited. Today also, I started playing with the child through my eyes and hands. To my surprise, he started responding in positive manner. I take pride that, most of the child would come to me and can be with me for longer time. It is proved to be true once more. I  was almost playing through the entire journey and did not feel the laziness of travel.

Though, I am back from Aurangabad, I am planning a personal trip to same, to visit Ajanta and  Ellora caves mainly!
