Answers
Answer:
My summer days were spend with my family and some distant cousins.
We decided to cool our minds at the mountains of Himalayas, and Sikkim was a perfect place. I have read somewhere that according to a Lonely Planet, Sikkim was the best region to visit during summers.
We took a plane to Bagdogra, then we took a cab to Gangtok, the capital of Sikkim. We travelled to bumpy and curvy roads and finally we reached there and were welcomed by cool and fresh mountain air and serene beauty.
After taking a rest at the Hotel, we decided to roam a place called M.G. Road, and at the entrance we were welcomed by a bronze statue of Mahatma Gandhi.
The place was brimming with lights and crowds, we took several photos and even treated ourselves with Sikkimese delicacies, momos were my favourite.
Next day we went to a place called Yumthang valley, and it was six hours from our hotel. Even we were in our mid summer, the place was covered with snows and the air felt fresh like ever, my lungs were filled with it. We made snowman and played with snowballs, even had snowfight with my cousins.
The next stop was known as Gurudongmer Lake, the lake was totally frozen, and in the big cold desert there was a lake and a solitary temple build beside it. It was such a beautiful sight.
We halt at a place called Lachung, it was a beautiful valley with icy river flowing by. The place was covered with snows and the people were welcoming and made us feel home.
We returned back to hotel, and the next day it was the day for us to return back to our home, but before going back we made a stop to an antique shop and bought various items and gifts for my friends.
It was the best summer ever, the times were well spent with families and friends, it will be remembered forever
