NCERT Class 4 EVS Omana Journey

Chapter 6

Omana Journey

As soon as we had reached the station we checked our names on the reservation chart. Soon the train reached the platform. We saw that the coach was already full. The train had started early in the morning from Gandhidham, in Kutch.

When the train came, there was so much confusion. People were getting off and others were pushing and trying to put their luggage inside, all from one door. We somehow managed to get in, find our seats and put our luggage under them. By the time the train started, most people had found their seats and arranged their luggage. After some time the ticket collector came and checked our tickets to see that we were in our proper seats.

Amma and Appa had the lower berths. Unni and I have the middle berths. There are two college students who have the upper berths. On the other berth, there is a family with two children. They seem to be about our age. I will go and talk to them later. Now I am sitting near the window and I have started writing about our journey, just as I had promised you. I will stop now because Amma has opened the tiffin box. Amma had packed a lot of food – dhokla with chutney, lemon rice, and some mithai. My mouth is watering. I will write more later.
