Tourist Visit at Pune

On the last day at Pune, we decided to explore Pune. I had been posted to Pune many years back. From mid 1985 to end 1988. Those days one never had the time to visit many of the tourist places, as one was very busy with studies, subsequently teaching the Post Graduate students and also looking after the family. Tourism used to be far away from the mind. But this time I thought I would atleast visit some of the signature places of Pune. Here is what we did on this day. The day started with a walk with Nilkanth on the Nyati County. Very refreshing and good walk. Walk up Nyati County  Subsequently for breakfast to Jyoti Restaurant. Here's what we sampled.

A marriage of a Hindu with a Roman Catholic Christian, the event will forever remain in my memories for times to come. It really shows how India is a real great secular country where religions don't matter. The marriage was performed in Hindu tradition, followed by the marriage in the Church in the most traditional Roman Catholic way. At the end of the day a reception was held in the traditions of the Roman Catholics, which I have seen a plenty during my tenure at Goa. The whole experience was really very good and enjoyable. All the events were organised in the most professional manner, in cordial and beautifu
