Kailash Manasarovar Yatra 2011 - Batch 1 - Day 01

May 29, 2011 – Day 01 – Medical Test at the Hospital

We all got ready in the early morning and boarded the bus which will take us to the Hospital. There we met some more Yatris who were not staying at the Gujarat Samaj. Most of them are from New Delhi or surrounding areas or have their friends and relatives in New Delhi; therefore chose to stay with their relatives and friends houses rather than at Gujarati Samaj. The hospital team asked us to take the blood test and other tests which had to be taken before breakfast. After this, they divided us into 2 groups. The first group continued further medical test and the second group had breakfast and continue medical test. I was into the second group, so I had my breakfast and continued the medical tests. There is huge queue for Thread milling test. Other tests are okay. After completing all the tests, It was 1800 hours. During this day, Our Liasion Officer Mr. Nimbadiaji came and gave some instructions on and the Yatra details. The hospital doctors gave some lectures on high altitude sickness and how to cope with them. After completing the tests, we proceeded to Gujarati Samaj again.
