Kanyakumari-Kashmir Round trip - Day 8 - Narmada - Ujjain - Udaipur

Day 8 - Narmada - Ujjain - Stay in Udaipur

Kilometers Covered - 485 Kms

Walking - less than 5000 steps

Took an early morning snanam (dip) in river Narmada - the water was not cold, not warm either :) We went through a short-cut (we call it so, because we don't know the footpath; we just followed the river only to understand that it was a longgggg cut) Post snanam, we checked out from Omkareshwar around 7 AM. On the way to Indore, had super hot kachodi, poha with namkeen and chai for breakfast.

CNG re-fill at Shri Bhavanishankar Petroleum Co, Indore (IOCL pump)

We parked the vehicle near a flower shop (took flowers and prasadam in exchange for parking - and that's the norm in MP & UP). Visited Ujjain temple - super duper darsham -myou have a special darshan ticket as well which would be helpful when you're on an expedition or when you're short of time; roamed around for some clicks - visited the Rath Yatra pond and started driving towards Udaipur. A mix of super, okay and bad roads :)

Mobiles are not allowed inside the temple premises. Both the mobile and chappal stand tokens were with Mahadevan and as expected we got lost in the crowd. After 20 mins, we met near the mobile counter as both of us were in sync. 







Another CNG re-fill at Friends Automobiles, Ratlam, MP (Indian Oil) followed by lunch at Maa Sagar Restaurant (highway), Namli, MP - mixed paratha, gobi paratha, veg biriyani and curd. 

We reached Udaipur, Rajasthan at 7.15 PM and our stay was at Treebo Trends Fresco. There's no car parking, there are umpteen parking lots around though. The hotel house a 4 storey restaurant - Red Sky Resto.

It's one of the best stays of the trip at a super economical rate. The roof-top restaurant (Panner Tikka) didn't disappoint us. Scintillating views and you'll never get bored spending time on the roof :)





Will meet you from Rajasthan on Day 9 :)

Luv,

Krishna & Mahadevan
