Took a short leave to visit parents in Himachal. Journey in the train AC Chair car was enjoyable . boarding at 1430 hrs and reaching Ropar at 2000 hrs was not at all tiring. Humidity levels though at its peak still the climate was enjoyable and much better than the hot and humid Delhi.

Carried the book by Leo Tolstoy "Anna Karenina" along. Out of 783 pages could read only 150. Beautifully written and enjoyable read.
few lines from the book : Anna, who is the heroine of the legendary novel, her husband, Alexey see her talking to a handsome man in a social gathering and is jealous and after due deliberation scolds her in the following line when she returns from the gettogether;
Alexey to Anna - I consider jealousy, as you know,a humiliating and degrading feeling,and I shall never allow myself to be influenced by it; but there are certain rules of decorum which can not be disregarded with impunity. This evening it was not I, but judging by the impression made on the company , every one observed that your conduct and deportment were not altogether what could be desired.
Rains are deficient by a huge margin though it had been raining during short stay at my native place.
