Some journeys are not just about the destination, but about the people you travel with. Our sudden weekend trip from Ahmedabad to Udaipur was one such experience – filled with laughter, friendship, and the magic of monsoon.
The plan wasn’t made weeks in advance. It was one of those impromptu decisions – pack your bags, grab your closest friends, and hit the road. As we drove out of Ahmedabad, the skies opened up. Heavy rain, drizzle, and mist accompanied us through the broken stretches of Gujarat’s highways. Even with the bumps and potholes, the joy of being together kept the mood light. Every shared playlist, every silly joke, and every chai stop along the way added to the memories.
Crossing into Rajasthan was like stepping into another world. Smooth roads, winding mountain curves, and greenery all around made the drive breathtaking. The conversations in the car flowed endlessly – from nostalgic stories to future dreams – proving yet again that road trips are the best way to reconnect.
Our stay at a bungalow near Badi Lake gave us the perfect setting. Saturday turned into a day of fun – swimming in the pool, dancing to loud music, and laughing till our stomachs hurt. Lunch turned into long chats, and a quick nap later, we were ready for a city walk. Despite the rain, we roamed Udaipur’s streets, tasted rabdi at a historic sweet shop, and enjoyed the old-world charm of Jagdish Temple area.
Sunday morning was reserved for shopping at Hathi Pol. From souvenirs to refreshing juice, we picked little pieces of Udaipur to take back with us. And then, with happy hearts, we drove back home through the same rain-washed roads.
This trip reminded us that the best part of travel is not just the sights you see, but the people you experience them with. Udaipur was beautiful, yes – but what made it unforgettable was the quality time we shared as friends on the road.
