     WHITE SHEET OF SNOW AT   

                        REGINA 

Thought some might find the Falling of Snow , intriguing as barring a few places up in the North of India , Snowing is an unseen phenomenon in India .

It is the Cheapest Here - 826

        IT IS BY FAR THE CHEAPEST HERE  AS ALL YOU FRIENDS MAY BE AWARE , BY A GOOD FORTUNE OF THE GRACE OF THE  GOOD LORD ABOVE  , I HAVE TRAVELLED FAR AND WIDE ACROSS THE GLOBE AND HAVE ALSO HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TRAVEL BY TRAIN IN MANY OF THESE COUNTRIES . SITTING HERE IN CANADA I CAME ACROSS A BOARD WHICH WAS POSTED IN ANOTHER GROUP WHICH SHOWED THE PASSENGER TRAIN FARE DETAILS EX AMBAS TO VARIOUS PLACES . WE , WHICH INCLUDES ME , YOURS TRULY FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON LIKE TO CRITICIZE THE SERVICE PROVIDERS BE IT FROM THE STATE OR CENTRAL AUSPICES FOR NO LOGICAL REASON AND DO A GREAT DISSERVICE TO OUR NATION BY PAINTING IT IN ALL THE WRONG COLOURS. TAKE FOR EXAMPLE THE PASSENGER TRAIN FARE FROM AMBASAMUDRAM TO KOVILPATTY . FOR THE 100 KM DISTANCE THE FARE ON THE INDIAN RAILWAYS IT  IS  Rs 25 OR 40 PAISE PER KILOMETER .              FORTY PAISE PER KILOMETER  WHEN YOU COMPARE THE SAME WITH THE TRAIN F...

REPOST : JOURNEY THAT CHANGED MY LIFE - 815

RETURN TO INDIA - 851

Image
       RETURN TO INDIA FROM CANADA  It is now almost close to a year that we are away from India . We had booked our return Tickets on the 12 th of  May by The Etihad Airways Flight EY 22 from Toronto to Abu Dhabi and the Flight EY 364 from Abu Dhabhi to Chennai . This was much before the skirmishes in the Gulf Region had started to make Headlines .  The reason for Choosing Etihad Airways as our Travel Partner was pretty obvious . Besides being cheaper , their  travel time was also less . Barring the Transit Halt at Abu Dhabhi for 4 Hours , the entire trip was of  less than 24 hours duration  . The all important TWO check in baggages for each of us was a definite advantage. Most Airlines restrict the same to one per head . The Gulf Crisis and Iran War commenced on the 28 th of Feb and started escalating by the day . Drone and Warheads damaging Oil and other Financial Institutions in the UAE  were sporadic. Dubai Airport took a few h...
