I just love how the net connects people. I was spending some time reading around, and headed across to Mridula’s blog - Travel Tales from India. Most of her recent posts are about Nainital.
Honestly, I hadn’t given much of a thought to Nainital, as to many mountaineers, “hill stations” are like the plague, unless they are access points to outstanding trekking routes or peaks. I’d been to Nainital, pretty much like I go to a railway station. But when I looked at the blog, I felt so connected, that I felt a sharp pang of regret, that my snobbish attitude had blinded me to the beauty of the “regular haunts”. There is a reason Nainital is a well loved hill station, and in my thirst for adventure, I had missed it entirely. Speaking of not bothering to stand and stare!
Then of course, I was in a Nainital mood, and found another blog - this time by Lokesh Shah and had my fill of looking at Nainital pictures. He has some really nice pictures, and the whole feel of it is one of familiar fondness.
Now I’m off to see what else I can find. I have two hours before heading off for a climbing session at Kanheri, and I plan to put them to good use.

I know exactly what you mean. I’ve skipped some places just because I thought they were a commodity
btw, thanks for the link. I’ll reciprocate for sure, there is so much to read on your site

I stumbled across your post through the link you gave. Nanital visit was courtesy Shervani Resorts, otherwise it is not on the top of my destination lists too

Hey Mridula, I’m happy you found this. I’d made it when I was clueless about trackbacks and suchlike.
I still remember the post, and I still love it.

Hi there!
I don’t personally know any good locations in Jodhpur other than the Ummaid Bhavan Palace and some other royal properties. They are not so much comfortable as opulent…
//Giving in to temptation, please don’t mind.
I don’t know any hotels in Jodhpur. In case you haven’t noticed, we are trainers, not booking agents….
//End temptation
I just wanted to say this to someone. I keep getting people asking me about locations in real life. Of course I don’t mind you asking here, its just that clients in the real world do that, when they should be talking about the training…. and I really have to hold on to my manners while I want to talk about training objectives and they want to know if there will be a party every night.
