This time when i decided to return to New Delhi from Jaipur,i, being weak due to the Viral Hepititis i suffered during December last year, decided to take the Rajasthan Tourism Volvo, instead of the bumpy Roadways buses. It's ticket costed Rs460, about more than thrice of the Roadways buses fare. I took the 3pm bus from Jaipur's central bus stand 'Sindhi Camp'.The bus started off and after about 20minutes,stopped at 'Narayan Singh Circle', Jaipur's second biggest inter state bus stop. From there, a few more passengers boarded the bus. The bus conductor, then distributed small mineral water bottles. These bottles, which carried 400ml water, could have easily fitted the pocket of my jeans.From there, the bus started and after about 20more minutes, the conductor flipped the CARBON LCD's fitted at the roof, and started playing a movie DVD. Then flew away a couple of hours, watching the movie. The movies in the DVD were new,had released within the last couple of weeks. The movie was then pauseand the conductor announced a 15min break at the RTDC midway at Behror. The bus halted, and i went off the bus. I ordered 'Idli Sambar'- a low oil South Indian dish. I could have ordered from other cuisines too, but the medical restrictions restrained me from doing so. After i boarded the bus again, the movie continued. After about 30 minutes, the movie finished.Then a discussion started about the movie with the doctor on the next seat for the next couple of hours. I boarded off the bus at 'Dhaula Kuan' - The first interstate bus stop of New Delhi. Now looking back at that journey, i think that t would have been a value for money at around Rs 360, seeing that a normal journey costs 150 bucks, and so does a movie at a multiplex. Well, i enjoyed this journey a lot.
Feel free to pour in your comments.

yes, you could certainly have saved Rs.150 for a movie ticket had you come by a bus. I think it was not wise enough to spent 450 travelling from Jaipur to Delhi, as it is not that far away. but it's your choice. hope you enjoyed your trip.
Yeah, very true ashi, but you see a 5 and a half hour trip is pretty boring but finding that you dont get bored at all......infact you utilise the time to the maximum extent, which i think is better than sleeping throughout the journey !
