waking up in the pleasant chill of the early desert morning, seeing the sun rise over the yellow sandstone fort, we had slept on the terrace in the night because it was too hot inside.. time to take the mattresses down get ready for school , have a hurried breafast and wait outside for the schoolbus to pick us up l ... the bus is actually an army shaktimaan truck with bench seats and a ladder welded at the back...scramble for the best seats .. and then the long drive to school crossing the camel carts and the bajaj scooters....
seems like it was just yesterday but that was 2 decades back, how time seems to have flown...
want to go back and see if the school with its sand filled playground and long corriders has changed or if any of the teachers who helped a shy introverted 13 yr old break out of his cocoon are still there...
the journey we want to undertake for the great driving challenge is going to be as much in time as in distance for me, I so hope we manage to qualify for it..
