i called up my regular cab driver Mr Lakpa yesterday ... luckily he was free and agreed to come with us ..... we planned for the lunch at the resort ..... we started at around 1230 in the afternoon ..... for a few minutes we were stranded in the traffic jam around gangtok ... journey was ok, except for a few patches on the roadside .....though Mr Lakpa know this place , he had little difficulty in identifying the place .... but sharply we reached the resort at 1300 hrs .... they approach road from the main road is steep ... we were welcomed by the resort manager .... young and cheerful person he was .... he took us to the Orchid restaurant .... what a lovely place ...what a cool atmosphere .... we went to the top of the resort to see the views ...as usual there was a heavy mist in the afternoon .....
we could identify a swimming pool, a play area for children .... they maintain absolute privacy for the guests ..... i could see dont disturb tags on the doors ..... we enjoyed the climate which was absolutely cool... we slogged on at the restaurant ..... so many tourist families were silently enjoying the afternoon with wonderful lunch .....
we had french fries, spring rolls as starters .... tawa parotta , veg biriyani, raita , mix veg subji ..... it was heavenly ... we refused the desserts as we planned to have further at Gangtok....
after finishing the wonderful lunch , reached MG Marg at Gangtok ...said good bye to Lakpa and slogged at MG Marg ....
had ice cream... kwality cornetto , and Amul ice cream too ... as the time blossomed to taste the wonderful tea at Golden tips shop today ...... had chocolate brownie at the Cafe Coffee Day ... completed the afternoon snack at Deys sweet corner with Gulab Jamun , samosa .... it was again a wonderful afternoon .....
loved every moment of it ... praying God to give us opportunity to be with such nature always .....
