Manali had waved its magic wand and my life was filled with joy to feel the thrill of an adventure cum most memorable holidays. It was during those Diwali holidays to an escape to an RCI resort of Sterling with the advantage of 7 days and 6 nights - exclusively to be spent at a unique Hill Station 'Manali' in India. You must have seen the pic on Holidays page with an Uno on the back-drop of Snow-scaped hills and wondered how we must have returned from Marhi. Whoaa..Manali has been a great trip by Uno car, all the way from Gujarat to Manali! The car really proved a great Road Test and it been a fantastic adventure tour that I ever had. Yeah, we went by Uno to Marhi and while coming back, the thin narrow roads were full of snow. A little skid there and we would have been down the hills. Touch wood, the pic shows us smiling back to our resort with an unforgettable, memorable experience.

Manali has so much to offer - the breathtaking sights of snow capped peaks, the gushing Beas river; hot springs at Vashisht, Manu and Hadimba temples, great shopping with amust buy nepali bell and kulu shawls. Israelis, I gather have made their second home in Manali and hence, lafa, shaksuka and other Israeli cuisine are advertised at every second hotel. Also available is Italian, German and Japanese food. We visited the Roerich Art Gallery, the beautiful Solang valley and yeah, Marhi towards the Rohtang Pass. At 13,000 ft. high, its scenic view. They do not have a toll but entry tax with free parking areas and provide a pamphlet containing a guide map of the town with details on taxi fares, etc. What impressed me was the cleanliness drive. Tourists or any person had pay a fine, charged for any plastic bags thrown in the town.
You can say, I saw a dream and it turned to a reality! Next time, you plan to visit places, call on us and yeah sure, you can turn your dreams to reality too:-)
