We started our vaishno Devi Yatra from Katra on 12th Morning around 11 am in morning on 12th November. Below is the picture at the gate of the route.
We took horses from Katra till Ardhkumari. Below is picture when we reached Ardhkumari
Then we started our upward journey and on way, after climbing for 1 hr, we had lunch. In lunch we took rajma chaval and Kadi chaval
We reached at Main Bhawan around 5 pm. Had bath, buy Prasad, and did ma vaishno darshan. Below is our pic after the darshan and before we started our upward journey for Baba Bhaironath darshan.
We reached bhaironath around 8 pm. And we had to wait there as Arti had started. We eat pakodi and drink tea there while waiting. Below is our pic while waiting
After Baba Bhaironath Darshan we climbed down to Ardhkumari where we did our dinner and stayed overnight. Below are our pics while having tea before going to bed
Next morning we got up around 8 am. We had ardhkumari darshan and had our breakfast. Around 10 am we started climbing down to katra.
While coming down I spotted three girls pretending to be ma Vaishno Devi and her two other sisters ma Saraswati and ma kali
We reached Katra by 1 pm. We had our lunch and started our journey from Katra to Jammu in Roadways bus. Below are some pics from that bus ride.
From Jammu we took our train to Delhi and came back fully tired but happy & blessed.
It was great trip and became more great because of meticulous planning and execution by our Guruji Subodh Kumar. And @utkarshvarma made it memorable for his usual drama for which he is well known among all of us. And Kishore helped us do purchasing with his insight and experience.
Jai Mata Di
