another..continued..

apologies firstly, didnt have the time to update! sowee!
Anyway continuing from where i left, after pune and its bazaars..we were headed to mahabaleshwar, a tiny stop in between our two major destinations, one being pune and the other aurangabad ofcourse. hmmmm well so mahabaleshwar, this place is a paradise on earth, a beautiful hill station not tiny at all actually and some of the most scenic sites on earth exist right here. fresh strawberries with rich whipped cream is a site in itself. and lucky us, we were there in time for the strawberry season! and accomodation wise, we had the best one here..lived like kings..at dirt cheap rates..super place in short. we visited the shivaji rao gaekwad's memorial there, a beautiful place and the view from the top is simple breath taking! the ajanta and ellora caves we visited were par excellence , the architecture is simple astinishing to see for the times they were built during.the hindu caves especially i found very very inticately carved and each and every wall depicitng a story of its own. though the jain caves were a bit to intricate, it was well applauded effort. and am talking centuries ago! well apart from all this, on the whole the trip was a lovely gastranomic tour and i would definitely love to be back and see more :)
