Friday 13th some month, some year


Manish offered us a drive to the airport. The drive was quite nice specially with the light drizzle. Waving Manish goodbye and in anticipation of the excitement we entered the check in area

After a relatively quick check-in of our luggage and we queued up for the flight. A minor argument happened at the check point with the attendant not letting my friend to carry the Swiss army knife, but we finally managed to carry the knife, yippee (but did we use that knife anywhere in the travel, I must ask!!).

There were butterflies in my stomach, head and possibly everywhere waiting for the flight to take us up, up and away. The aircraft was filled with the mindless banter and chatter of co passengers mostly Indians and particularly rowdy troupe of Italians.

The hungry me, hogged down the stale sandwiches, fruits and some particularly yucky wine.

Snuggled by the window seat, we finally bid goodbye to the crowd of tiny yellow lights set against a particularly dark sky of Delhi
