Pune/poona?

I was awake most of yesterday night......on the phone, mostly. I still managed to wake up at 6.30 and get to the Dadar-Pune bus stand....yayy me!!!
Boarding the bus, a wave of nausea and memories hit me.....nausea, dunno why, and memories of the four days spent in the bus to and from Manali, dancing, music, sleepysleep, the huge bed-like back seat.....cramped, hot, stuffy, bumpy.....the jokes and the songs....
And now here I am, at my cousin's place, in the Bhartiya Vidyapeeth campus, her Dad's director of the management college.....and i watch on as she turns the walls of her tiny bedroom into a warli procession, I draw, she paints....
Went to Tulsibagh with her today, revelling in streets and winding streets of jewellery and various knickknacks, explored a small wada I found there, took a rickshaw to the wrong road by mistake, and finally ended up home much earlier than we intended to....
So yeah, I'm njoying myself...
