We had been planning for a fortnight vacation for over six months. It was to be in the end of May or beginning of June. Eventually we planned it for the second half of June. Since the economic downturn, we were contemplating whether to go ahead with the planned vacation or not. But what the hell! Approved leaves of 15 days are hard to come by, for me as well as Adesh. So we thought of 'budget holiday'.
One week of budget travel and one week at home in Punjab.
We decided to go to Sangla Valley in Himachal Pradesh. And, we planned to travel by Himachal Roadways bus.
The itinerary was:
14th June: Gurgaon- Chandigarh
15th June: Chandigarh- Sarahan
16th June: Sarahan- Sangla
17th June: Sangla
18th June: Sangla
19th June: Sangla- Thanedhar
20th June: Thanedhar- Chandigarh
Lonely Planet and K Srinivasan's blog helped a lot in planning the trip.
The stay was in budget guest houses and Himachal Tourism hotel. We booked the Himachal Tourism hotel in Sarahan beforehand through their website. The bus schedule at HRTC website also helped, and my brother got the bus ticket booked in advance from Chandigarh.
The bags were packed. The excitement was high. And, we were raring to say- "Let's Go!!!"
