Assalam-O-Alikum Friends,

Today was one of those special moments of my life, remembering which a smile automatically comes on my face. There was a plan for many days that we should go out somewhere with friends, to change our mind a bit and get a little break from the daily hustle and bustle. Finally today that day has come, when we all set out towards Pavagadh early in the morning.

When we boarded the bus in the morning, the atmosphere was quite energetic from the beginning. Inside the bus, colorful lights, music and voices of friends – everything together was giving a different happiness. Someone had no sleep, someone wanted tea and some people were just busy taking photos. As soon as the song started, half the people left their seats and started dancing in the middle area. I also became a part of that fun atmosphere. It seemed as if our bus had become a small disco while moving.

The second joy of the journey was the long, quiet and beautiful highway seen outside the window of the bus. Widespread greenery, empty roads and mild cool breeze – it seemed as if the road had also joined our happiness today. Many times I just remained silent and watched the scene. The road to Pavagadh is always beautiful, but today's experience was different.
