"You must have had a hard day." "Boy, did I ever!" "You should get into the shower right away. It is almost time for dinner." "I think I'll take a bath instead." "I wouldn't do that if I were you."

From the summit you could see the lake and the small town of Simla. The entire stretch of the lake looked sleepy in the sun, its color changing from dark green to blue, then to a lighter shade of blue. Hills surrounded the lake, and about midway between the peak of the hill and the lake, sprawled the big stone building of Honeymoon Lodge. The hotel complex c...
