Road to Mount Abu

Well it's on the road, so I'll do it with pictures all through:

Setting off. The rock formations along the way are so distinctive that they by themselves make taking that journey worthwhile.


A chat with the chaat guy........ possibly the best chaat I've ever had


One farmaish fulfilled, of an authentic Rajasthani thali. Their thali is a 'dal, bhaatti churma', very interesting, which was part of our larger thali.


They have a few tunnels on the way, and even their tunnels have architecturally designed entrances and their own names too. This one was Ukhaliyat.


Got a nice picture inside the tunnel......making true the adage 'there's a light at the end of the tunnel' (and light within if you can have electricity :)


Our chai pit stop, and mom pulling out biscuit packets and bananas for the dogs and cows around :)


This little girl so caught my attention, as she looked at me with such a blatant curious look as I was feeding the dogs. Iminya or meena her name was.....the picture was with her permission and ofcourse with a packet of biscuits for her (mom seems to have endless supplies of them :)


The Aravalli ranges are with you almost, no actually all the way along.... after all Mount Abu is atop one of the Aravalli mountains


There were tons of langurs along the way


Arriving at Sterling in the evening...the view from our room


As always, I loved the road drive.....I find them just so invigorating, almost meditatively so :)
