Mangalore to Mumbai Flight
Family Wedding At My Favourite Metro City
The work life and personal life are usually hectic as it is so whenever I get to spend sometime with my cousins especially away from home I never say no to it. This time one of my cousins were getting married in Mumbai and I could already imagine my entire family being there. Lot's of food, colorful clothing and entertainment were going to be the biggest reason why no one would dare miss this event.
So it was decided that we would go to Mumbai a week before itself and I eagerly complied by taking my yearly leave put to use for the same.
A business class flight experience
The chance to meet and greet my family had kept me on the edge at all times. I booked an Etihad Airways flight since I did not feel like traveling by a domestic airline as it was festive season and I was sure about experiencing a lot of rush during the same time so I went ahead with booking a business class ticket just to make a bit more out of my journey.
A little bit of luxury may hamper the pockets slightly but the experience would always turn out to be splendid which is why I chose the business class. Mangalore to Mumbai flight journey was short and filled with the chance to gorge on some healthy breakfast. My hunger died down soon after and I took a nap to keep the jittery feelings at bay for sometime.
The journey ended all too soon and once we landed at the airport my cousins started calling us up. They were outside the airport to pick us up. The best part being there were two cars so my parents left for the hotel directly in one whereas I got to enjoy the early morning drive with some soft music and lots of discussions followed by my cousins.
Soon we had to rush back to start preparing for the dance sequence I had in my mind and to also sort out a few shopping lists.
The luxurious beach side hotel
The hotel for our stay was none other than my favourite Hotel Sea-n-rock. Every visit to Mumbai is followed by a stay here as it is extremely close to the beach and beaches are the main reason why I love Mumbai most amongst all the metro cities. My luggage was soon taken care of and we were assisted on a floor different from others.
Apparently my cousin had planned to keep all cousins and younger relatives on one floor and all the aunts and uncles along with older relatives on a separate floor. This gave us a lot more chance to act carefree and go around gossiping in each others rooms at anytime of the day without having to worry about clothing or being caught by a relative to talk about marriage perspectives.
The hotel room that I was allotted was one of a kind since it offered me the best view of the sea and I kept on thanking my sister for the same. The hotel staff adhered to all our needs at all times of the day which was another reason why I preferred this hotel over all others.
The wedding was followed by in the days to come and I planned on coming back again but this time alone to enjoy long hour bubble baths and strolls at soothing strolls at the beach.
