KASOL (Day 4 and 5)- (XLIII)

I started retreating to Kasol
the next day
with more confidence
as then I knew the way

Reaching Chalal
I took a break
I stopped at Guru Cafe
which was serving ash cake

There I met few people
who joined me in my journey to Kasol
We stopped at river bed
which was their common protocol

Tired but still energetic
I went to Little Italy Cafe
I had Apple Cider
as I realised it was Friday

The day was still incomplete
As I hadn't gone to Evergreen
Trippy music and delightful dinner
Watching the brightness of full moon in between

The next day I caught a bus
till Manikaran
which is famous for its hot spring, Gurudwara and hot cave
amongst everyone

I went into the cave
and it was like taking sauna bath
so soothing, so meditating
it removed all the previous day's trek wrath

In evening I caught bus till Delhi
reached my home the next morning
Happy, peaceful, settled, satisfied
Kasol, a heaven on earth
I left behind.
