I do not want to be DTOA (Dead Tired On Arrival)!

A trip to the Capital city of India, during a hectic week in the middle of a semester for just a weekend can easily be the best get away I could ever think Of!
Iv been waiting for a holiday! And I just do not want to be Tired on arrival! It usually happens cause Im air sick! Well thinking over it Im basically Travel Sick. But I love exploring places and If ever there was a stream of Undergraduate Courses which dealt with just travel and had a good scope, I would easily have opted for that! But going by the trend Engineering seemed right then! I have No complaints of that though!
Anyways an Early Morning Flight out of Bangalore has a lot of Implications! It means getting up early with the experiences we've had of getting up an hour and a half before the flight we're used to it!
We're out of Our House by 4 and the only tune which keeps humming itself in my Mind was "Leaving on a Jet Plane"! The scenic beauty to the Bengaluru International Airport is always Amazing and it takes my breath away everytime!
But within No time were we in the race with other cabs. So I take out my earphones plug it in and go into a World Of My Own!
I get up in the middle and realise we've reached the Airport, then I started dreading the Journey cause there has only been a travel when I have never shown any Uneasiness! Thanks to my Co Passenger. She kept giving me boosts of Confidence! Well this time its different, this time Im not on my Own! I have my entire family!
By the end of the 2 and a half hour Journey, I realise what the best way to beat the Uneasiness is! Sleep through the entire journey on My Amma' Lap. I wonder what Il do on my Journey back, considering Im going back on my Own again!
Well the famous T3 Terminal took me by surprise. It was amazing! It was like No Airport Iv seen before! It was Awesome! Was this just the beginning of an awesome Weekend Getaway with extremely Out of this world Roaming Charges!? Well it did start as one.
The reason we came to Delhi was a Promotional Transfer! Transfers always give me the jitters! It keeps us all apart but the very fact that its Just a 2 and a half hour flight away, Just an Std call away, Just a National Sms away! It eases my Nerves.
And I still believe in What happens, Always happens for the Good!
Our First stop was the Quarters but we had nothing to spend a day in it! So we decided Shopping and before anything Eating. We were famished!
We go to the Famous South Indian Creation - Saravana Bhavan! It made us feel at home but the prices did make me feel we were paying a bit too much for eating in a place just like home, So far away from Home!
Jet Lag didn't bother me once I realised I was to go Shopping! But that was Short Lived. My Mother fell sick and she was so in need of some Well deserved rest. After all it was a holiday! My Father did not think Twice! Within No Time we were Checked in to The YMCA! I was not DTOA, until I sat on the bed and Got up by 7 in the evening for Dinner!
