Besides relaxing in the nature’s lap, my family and I had another objective- spotting the sight of the mighty royal Bengal tiger.  So, just within a few days, we began our family expedition to our chosen holiday destination. After covering a distance of few hours on road, we finally reached the Jim Corbett National Park and checked into our resort. Little did we know, as kids, that the place would turn out to be a blessing in disguise, as we were taken aback by the splendid view and the fresh scent of lush green forests, so much so, that we even wished we had come to this place earlier in our lives.
