I panicked when I reached ranikhet market for it was nothing more than a
small market, cluttered and nuthing of interest. But then, as we crossed the market, I was surprised at the beauty that place carried. We had made the bookings in Windsor Lodge - which is much better than the pictures I saw - with 3 star comforts and serenity in the environment. Just before the resort is a 9-hole golf course - which looks awesome. The lodge is a heritage resort and it was interesting to see the way they had done up the entire place. Mili had a great time running around the place. Both Manish and I could not ask for anything better in this upcoming tourist place for it's peaceful environment and serenity of the mountains are around refreshed us beyond words.

Pin drop silence everywhere with only the occassional cookoo of the birds in the trees. People who live uphill, I envy the life that they lead. It is so free from the hustle bustle of metros and the traffic chaos - away from nature in all. Well, the next day was interesting - we got to know of the apple orchard and a Jhula mandir which were little ahead of Ranikhet and decided to spend the day there. Apple orchad - breath taking view of the hills and a small trek to go from one mountain to another. I don;t have the pictures today with me. Let me post them tomorrow. And so will my post continue. So long, be with me.

Ranikhet ... hmmm
I had gone there about 12 years ago if I remember right... about the same time as the Surat plague.
Really loved the place ... there was this temple just a little into the jungle where people would tie ribbons when they asked for something. I and my friend had gone there very early in the morning while it was still a little misty.
Hope your trip left you with as many happy memories as mine did!
