"Do you know what Tea Tourism is ?"
"I do. Tourists get the opportunity to stay a few days on a tea-plantation. A number of managers bungalows have been turned into tourist accommodations."
Very Good
Why dont you take to the Tea Estates of Darjeeling whenever you go there for work. You got many clients there.
Actually I keep very busy and I dont get time son. Someday I will take you.
My 9 Year old kid in class 4, went off to another room with a drooling face
The following day was a parent teacher meeting in his school. The first question in the form of a ranting, I got from the class teacher was
"Why dont you take your son to see how tea is manufactured, since you got clients in Darjeeling district."
The question came as if I dont care about my son's happiness anymore , and this school of his is very protective about their students.
I replied, "I will Ma'am".
She ranted back, " When ?"
I replied,"Soon"
She inquired,"How soon".
Understood she wanted a date to confirm.
I said,"this week end" , in my mind calculation started 1st of August 2016 is a holiday for him so if we start on Friday 29th night since he has school that day we can reach easily on 30th morning siliguri. 1st August is a holiday for them.
"OK", she answered satisfactorily
Returned home called wife,narrated the entire incident and said since today is Wednesday we are leaving on Friday.
Now main problem was which Tea estate to choose.
I added up that I must take him to a tea estate to see the entire process. How about adding Forests to the trip, maybe the unknown ones, like Baikanthapur Forest and Mal Forest with few rivers like MAl Nady and Neora River, they will look awesome in this monsoon.
So be it North Bengal. Zindabad
So planning started .
