"Do you have faith in me?" She asked climbing up t "Do you have faith in me?" She asked climbing up the hill.
I took the panting as an excuse to delay my response. 
All while thinking is it wise to go wandering alone in the twilight? What if we get lost? What if it gets dark? What if..?
My chain of thoughts were broken when she spoke again "It will be all worth it"
I kept shaking my mobile phone looking for a faint signal and trying to not topple over some loose stones. The visibility ahead was getting lower with the arrival of dense clouds. With every passing moment my heart was beating faster.
And then she paused.."Look! There it is"
I watched in awe! The fog cleared up to make way for a beautiful temple. Faint sounds from bells spread warmth in my body, fear slowly fleeing away. 
I felt joy, I felt alive. 
And then I felt her hand in mine, holding on tight, reassuring me that the world is a beautiful place to be. ❤

The view of Howrah Bridge from Mullick ghat is inc The view of Howrah Bridge from Mullick ghat is incredible. Several movies and songs are shot here and this is a popular spot for wedding shoots.

Mornings scenes are filled with people taking a dip in the river and couples enjoying conversations in the steps leading to the ghats. 
Occasional chaiwallas can be seen doing the rounds and going about their business.
The backdrop of Howrah railway station stands out colouring the horizon in red. Ferries carrying passengers from one bank to the other can be spotted in the waters below. 

Best time to visit is early mornings to witness the busy scenes or evenings to watch the sunset.

Walking the streets of Kumartuli- Potters' colony Walking the streets of Kumartuli- Potters' colony
Watching the artisans in awe how they turn earth and straw into these beautiful masterpieces.
Where every part, every piece is handcrafted with patience and passion.
Do take a cultural tour of Kumartuli when in Kolkata and learn a great deal about the art of making the clay idols.

Look who is back.
My lovely little collarbone 🤗

Emerging victoriously from the pounds of extra weight I put on in the last two years. 
Not even the massive amount of bengali dishes I consumed during the last trip could push it back down.😛

A sign of hope and positivity...Glad to have you back girl!😁

Sometimes things don't go as planned and pictures Sometimes things don't go as planned and pictures don't reveal what went around the moments before and after they were captured. 
Here is one such story of disappointment. 

Boat ride at Prinsep ghat was definitely something we wanted to experience. With all the rain showers in Kolkata and multiple itinerary changes we set out one morning when the weather forecast confirmed it's going to be clear skies from 6-7 AM. 

After reaching Prinsep ghat and being told the boat rides are in a different place we reached Babu ghat and let a sigh of relief to have found the row of boats there. We were in a hurry to get back home as it was in midst of a working week so without haggling much we agreed to pay whatever the ferrymen asked for. It was twice the actual price for an hour's ride!

Anyhow before getting into the boat we took out our camera gears and set it up. As soon as the boat left the banks, to our dismay the ferryman started screaming at us to keep the camera away as there was a special permission required for any shoot. We were shocked as no one told this before we got into the boat and suddenly there were all these restrictions. If we knew we would have definitely prepared accordingly or looked out for the permit atleast. 

The next hour was total disappointment..the boat kept circling around the banks where people were bathing, moving at a snail's pace. With some argument the guy agreed to take us towards the bridge away from the banks into the waters. This is where we managed to get a few shots. Riya settled on the deck in deep thought while I inside the boat trying to figure out how we could have researched better.

Meanwhile the boat took a turn and we were back to our boarding point. I looked at my watch, it had just been 40mins. What then followed were some nonsensical excuses, war of words, threats from other side and a journey that we didn't want to remember.

We are still sharing this story here because we want to keep it real. Everything from our struggles, disappointments to genuinely enjoyable experiences.

The color yellow is synonymous with Kolkata. When The color yellow is synonymous with Kolkata. 
When out on the streets it's hard to miss these vintage ambassador taxis.

Though all the taxis have meters installed hardly any of them run on it. Got to negotiate for price but yeah they have great stories to tell. The one we got was on the road from past 27 years and has literally seen the city changing to what it is now. 

Post pandemic the number of these iconic taxis have reduced due to the increased popularity of app based cab services.
Hope it doesn't turn into just a heritage service like the trams some day.
