Same time and same place, am going there with parents :-)
As per people , it is not right time to go there, we will not get flower in VOF, Mansoon is extended to 2-3 Week , so Rain is possible. I think Hemkund Sahib is closing on 4-5 OCT.

I already made fallback plan of Raj. :-), in worst case scenario will go to Raj. ( because leave is already approved )

viraj, you need to look on the foll aspects;
on day II what you planned not possible. kedarnath up & down trek is 28 km and from it is not possible reach chopta same day
day 4. why do you want to go gaurikund again from chopta
day 7 no need to come joshimath, govindghat is between badrinath & joshimath. from here trek starts for hemkund & VOF
