I-Experience My Visiting Matheran

Kwakuyimveki ngaphambi kweDiwali, ngoko ke ndathemba ukubetha izihlwele kwaye ndifumane izaphulelo ezifanelekileyo. Ndivuyayo ukuthetha ukuba konke oku kunokwenzeka, kwaye ndabuyela ekhaya ndaphumle ngokupheleleyo kwaye ndabuyiselwa.
Ukuze ndifike apho, ndabamba iKoyna Express yaseMumbai.

Andizange ndikhange isitimela sezitokisi njengoko kwakungekho ixesha eliphakamileyo, kodwa ke zonke izihlalo zesekondari zathathwa. Ngenhlanhla, ndakwazi ukufumana esinye sezikhundla zokugqibela eziseleyo kwiklasi yokuqala.
