Some time in Oct, amidst the chaos of the Chikmagallur holiday, we had booked our Allahabad holiday. Yes, Allahabad is my “native” (as asked in Bangalore). We booked and then went about our business. November came and went and we realised hols were round the corner. We discussed the plans with the kids. Bad idea. Scooby has been packing/unpacking (virtually) everyday. Uvi’s lego train has stopped going to Chikmagallur. It goes to Allahabad instead.
Scooby has no regrets about missing her Piano recital on Sunday and Uvi his king part in the Nativity play on Tuesday.
As for me, looking forward to putting up my feet, literally. Dread the early morning flight, rush to the station and then a six hours train ride.
Bags are packed with our mixed bag of emotions.
Bis dann!
