One funny yet uncomforting event i forgot to mention , while we were on our way from kundal shaahi to keran , our driver shafiq , stopped the jeep some 30 mins before keran and called a boy , who was standing nearby , when he came close , shafiq asks : 'bhai keran ka rasta yehi hena ? , boy : jee yehi raasta seedha jayega
hearing this , hamaare to haath kay totay ur gaye :o , as he stepped on the pedal again , i asked : 'shafiq bhai apko rasta nahi pata? ' , he replies : 'yaar pata hay bus confirm kar raha tha' ..
then again , when we left keran for shardah , he asked 3 or 4 more people for the way and hame pakka hogaya ke boss isay rasta nahi pata , on the way i asked 'yaar apko raste nai yaad, ap pehle shardah naii aye kabhi?' , replies : yaar boht tym pehle aya tha , woh bhee raat me , 1 rishtedaar ki baraat main , me : 'ap kel gaye ho pehle kabhi ? ' , shafiq replies : 'nahi'
silence , and a strange one , we were in shock and a little bit worried too because we were travelling with a driver , jise apparently raste hee nahi pata , but 2 positive factors were that :
1.the road is straight , because there are no turns , its not a problem if u dont even know the route
2. shafiq was one heck of an awesome driver , although he was not that much experienced and was of our age group , 22 maybe , but his driving was superb , never got emotional or tensed or anything , always drove with complete calmness and politeness , never even overspeeded.
