My personal sense of direction has always been a little, shall we say, off. K. is, if possible, much worse :)
We left campus at 2 am and immediately proceeded for 10 km in the wrong direction. To give us some credit, we went in exactly the opposite direction. No mean feat that!
There's something about the wind in your hair on a cool morning, an open road, and no destination or timetable in mind. For as far as we could see, the road was ours.
As Sally says, in Cars
Well, the road didn't cut through the land like that interstate. It moved with the land, it rose, it fell, it curved. Cars didn't drive on it to make great time. They drove on it to have a great time.
And we ended with piping hot parathas at a roadside dhaba..

"The distance between Vastrapur and Gandhinagar is roughly 30 odd kilometers. The roundtrip took us about 1.5 hours and 74 km on an open highway"......

2*(30km+10km)= 80 Km. You r missing 6 KM.
We didn't go all the way till Gandhinagar :)
And I issued 'no mental math' disclaimers!
That is one crazy side of the country. Spent an interesting summer there.Hmm...Good times.
Hi Suze,
Been following your blog for a while. Can you give me details of the 'unspoiled beach' at Palolem as also the acco? Am currently wrapping up my mba at the ISB and planning the traditional 'end of mba Goa trip' :)
My email id is swapnil.nadkar@gmail.com . Many thanks for your help!
