Goal is Muktinath - it is a long path from Hyderabad, India

Flight to Delhi was at 4:45 a.m. The main problem was the transportation to the Airport.
Decided to take a bus. No Taxi came. No Auto in the vicinity to go to the Jubilee Bus stand which was closest to the residence. Finally, decided to walk. Stopped a man going on a scooter. He gave a ride to the Bus stand. No reliable help from family either. I would accept all this as a general tendency in India.

 Finally, took the bus and it arrived at the Airport close to 4:45 a.m.
Thank God, did not miss the flight.
BUT, Indigo guys did not book the baggage to Kathmandu. So, had to go to terminal 3 with baggage.
Checked in for Kathmandu. Passport was checked. The Sree travels did not show up. Tried to call.
The personal phone did not work. ISTD was used to make the call. Finally, Sree travels representive Aggarwal came within 20 minutes. He had a different itenerary. No one to receive. No food on Indigo. Met a few  -  Sampath, the head priest from Srirangam. The others are all mostly Senior citizens.

This is the first step. The next post will give specific details of the yatra to Muktinath.

Muktinath and Pashupathinath temples

These are not accessable to travel for the elderly and those with physical limitations. I know that if there is a will, there is a way. Last year, I could not join my husband in this yatra. He planned a long trip to stay in India. Also with the natural disturbance in Nepal area, i was nervous to travel in September 2015. But, with the blessings of the Lord, my husband had blissful and comfortable journey. His total trip was three and a half months long.
He made some notes of his experiences and in my nextt post I want to write all those details. I have been lazy writing in my blog. Hope the readers make comments on my previous posts.
Any feed back helps improve my writing. Thank you all.
