The Demise of Rishikesh ...

... At least as a weekend get away option. Don't ever do it to yourself.
 I insist. Go in an off season maybe. but never dare to go there during the weekend. The whole delhi is going to be there. The rude men staring at you. The nosy aunty from the neighborhood. The overpriced and full guest houses. Even that ananda spa visit won't be worth it if you are struck in delhi traffic in rishikesh.

On the positive side, the freedom cafe pancake was still worth the visit. The view is without a doubt one of the good ones in rishikesh. And it had drizzled when we sat there...

The fruit nutella pancake :)

Freedom Cafe, Rishikesh 

The little Buddha cafe was also very good, but too crowded. The roof top most outside chairs were a good spot to sit. Ganga at nite ...

Seeing this picture makes me realize how I badly want a DSLR ... hmm hopefully soon, now that I am employed full time.

But I still want to go to the place called Moon dance near Ram Jhula (The above are near Laxman Jhula). I hear its good food. So that might just take me back to rishikesh. Also, the long wanted never daring baba massage center's massage :)

So guess will go back to rishikesh for this and maybe to find less mean spots and timings. 

(p.s. It is more of an adrenaline rush to cross the laxman jhula on a heavy bike at evening than rafting)
