Chapter 55| Gondola Lifts

Start from the beginning
                                    

Ansh:"Papa seee"(He yelled breaking Neil's thoughts as he looked at the direction Ansh was pointing at. He saw the gondola lifts going up the mountains)

Aryan:"Papa I want to go there"

Neil:" We will go champ. But first let's head inside the building and see other things okay"

They all headed inside the building. Rohan got few maps for everyone as they settled in the restaurant area looking at what they could do.

Rohan:" So as per the activities. We can take the gondola lifts up and down the mountain. On top of the mountain, there is nothing much then the view and panic tables for resting. If we walk a little further behind this building They have a long bridge over the river that flows below it and they have bungee jumping available there. So what do we want to do first"( he said looking up at everyone after he finished summarizing  everything on the map)

Preeti:(excitedly)"I want to bungee jump sid"

Sid looked towards Preeti horrified while everyone else laughed. Preeti has always been adventurous person. Trying new and adventurous things made her happy.

Sid:"Baby we will see that later okay"

Preeti:"But siddd"

Neil:"Preeti how about we head up the mountain and enjoy some time up there have lunch and all then when we came back down we can go see the bridge and you can bungee jump"

Rahul:"That sounds like a plan"(everyone agreed)

Ahana along with Neil went and purchased few food items from the counter to take up top. They ordered few sandwiches and juice for kids while Coke for adults. Afterwards, they all headed to the gondola lifts which had the entrance from inside the building only.

Gondola Lift could hold up to 6 people in one lift. The worker there was counting people and guiding  them into the lift. The left never stopped. The gate just opened and you were supposed to hope in as it take a loop around the place before the gate closes and it take you up.

Worker:(As Malhotra family came)"How many in the family "

Rohan:"10 people and 3 little kids "( He said pointing at Ansh Aryan and Naira standing by Ahana and Neil)

Worker:" You have to divide in 2. The 3 kids can go together"( The worker made Rahul, rohan, Angali,  Shruti, Sameer and Ryan go in one lift while the second lift was for Sid, Preeti, Ahana, Neil and the kids )

As the lift came in the loops, Neil and Sid helped Ansh and Naira on while others just went by themselves. Inside the lift was 2 benches facing each other. 3 People could fit in one bench. Preeti, Aryan and Sid sat on one bench while in front of them Ahana, Ansh, And Neil sat with Naira in his lap.

The lift started to move as the door shut and it wobbled a little when it let go of the ground beneath it and held onto the string above it. Naira suddenly felt scared as she hugged Neil hiding her face in his neck. Ansh as well held on to Ahana tightly closing his eyes while Aryan held on to Sid.

Neil:"Hey princess why are you scared. Papa is here na sweetheart. ( turning to Ansh)"buddy open you eyes and look around it's so green green"

Ahana:"Yes Ansh, Aryan see nothing will happen. You all wanted to come na. Think of this as a ride"

Naira:( peaking at Ahana)"we will fall mumma"

Ahana:"No baby. You know ma mumma and Papa will never let you fall. And see that"( The kids turned to where Ahana pointed to See few birds flying. Behind the the river flowed as it hit the rocks while the green mountains shined in the sunlight. Ahana took a picture of everyone as they admired the view)
