A week in Pune

Let me start from the scratch.
The journey - begins from Ahmedabad on Ahmedabad - Pune special express.
Though we paid almost 1000bucks for a 2A, we travelled with a zillion cocroaches. The 3A was a new coach and was better than the expensive class. Well, the grass is always greener on the other side u see.
Coming home to pimpri, vishalnagar wasnt much of a trouble. The same old coolie fight and the autowala fight early morning @ 5am got me all energized with V & V..

By the time is was 5pm i was out on the streets. All i could see were youngsters. Bikes and sunglasses and young people fill this city.
Went in to Snigis' place, chit chatted a while and left for KP (Korgaon Park). Our first destination was the very famoous 'German bakery'. Ordered the omellete, Chips & salad & choc mousse. Chips and salad - Salad filled with palak and the taste dint quite set in here. I still love my finger chips with the plain old Ketchup. So i grabbed a bottle of ketchup from a table across us.
Then, we hit the road for some Osho chappal shopping.Cheap - Neat - Cool - Just 50 bucks :)
Our next destination was The Ship, though we werent hungry we just went in to have a drink. Mind well it was a dry day - so just the mocktails.
All we ordered was a Safe sex on teh beach, which was almost a sweet syrup.
The ambience of this place is amazing. It was chic - by the garden - nice breeze - great music. U name it and that place had it. We dint move for the next two hours from there. Our talks kept us busy.
