The unplanned trip to tungnath

This is the story of last spring when we started off to srinagar from delhi. Srinagar is a place where we go every year. But last year the journey turned out to be an adventure. When me and my cousin started an unplanned trip to tungnath. 


Those days we were in bua's house, usually we go there every year. In the morning my parents and buaji asked me to come along with them to dhari devi mandir, i denied as it was too early in the morning. Me and my cousin were alone, her friends called her randomly, and asked for the trip to chopta she asked me and we were ready to go. 



The trip started from 9:00am im the morning. We were 4 people in two bikes. After around 1hr of journey, we diverted from badrinath highway to kedarnath. We stopped their at a shop ate some maggie. The road was tough after we diverted to kedarnath highway.  After 2 hrs journey we reached chopta. We trekked for about  3hrs and reached the tungnath temple. The views were amazing that we didnt even get to know when we reached the temple. Around at 4:00pm, we decided to go down to chopta where we had parked our bikes. 

We started off to srinagar from chopta, and reached home by 8:00 at night. The trip was very tiring, but had great fun with my friends & the people who were trekking along with us.

Jaunsar - The land of witches

One of the heated topic on those stories were of jaunsar, a place in uttrakhand where people believe witches exist.  The story, that i remember from my nanaji's side is that once my nanaji's grandfather went to jaunsar for development of roads. Hence he wondered that all the stories from jaunsar were a myth & other engineers were not ready to go there, he got ready for the project of jaunsar. The day he reached jaunsar a cat tried to enter the flat alloted to him, which looked a little bigger than the normal cat. While the cat was trying to enter through the window, he threw wooden photo frame on the cat. He was really terrified by the cat because of it's abnormal size, he had understood that it was one of the witches of jaunsar. The next day when he woke up he noticed that one of the woman ...
