Most Excited Family Trip

Last Week End, We had gone for an excited trip.
We went to "Shimoga" and "Chikmagalur" ( Hope the spelling is correct)
Thursday Night, we started from Bangalore and reached Shimoga by Friday morning 5.30 AM.
First we went to a temple, kind of island where we need to travel in a boat and reach there.
It was an awesome river with so much water-flow ( I think its because of rainy season).
Some people told that the river name is "Sharavathi",whereas other people told that it is "Thungabathra".

 

We reached the temple, we couldn't go inside the temple as there was a big queue.

But We enjoyed the journey in that river.

Our next destination was the famous "Jog Falls".

The beauty of that falls, Oh My God!!! I can't explain it in words..

It was simply Awesome in one word.. There were so much water..

I was in an impression that they will allow to go inside that falls, which was not true.

We took photos and enjoyed the view..

Friday Night, we stayed in Shimoga ...Nobody can forget that hotel food... :-(

Saturday Morning, we started our journey towards "Kalhatri" falls..( some people pronounced as "kallatgiri")

There we were allowed to get inside.. It was awesome falls..

We all were hungry enough to attack hot "Bhajjis" in a small shop near to that falls.. It was the tastiest food at that time..

Then we went to "Kemmangundhi" falls.. The path was so much wild.. That much it made us to feel happy..

Falls was also very nice..

On the way back, we were caught by great "Leeches". Those blood suckers tasted almost everyone's.

We all were screaming, running here and there, can't forget for whole life..

Then we reached a nice cottage in chikmagalur, played some games.. Had nice food..

Sunday Morning, we started journey towards Bangalore..

On the way, we went for boating.. Here is the first time, I traveled in Speed boat..

First time,I saw Banana boat and Jet Sky which were awesome.

After that we got parcel food in "Hassan" and had in an opened space... That experience was good..

The speciality of the trip is "The Team" that had formed... There were no misunderstanding..

All were in a single good mood to freak out and enjoy..

Two kiddos ( Kavya and Siddhu) made the trip more special..

Nice Team.. Nice Trip.. Total Enjoyment, And nothing is required other than that..

Team is here..

 

Life is once.. And God has given us to Live at the most part of it...

We should enjoy every moment of it.. We don't know, what next minute holds for us...

Do Enjoy!!!

With Love,

Vaanadhi.

 

Guhantara Resort

Last week end, we made team trip to a cave resort which is called as "Guhantara"
I liked the environment so much.
Everything they tried to make it as natural.
Food arrangements were really nice.
There are two swimming pools and a broad area for out door games.
Indoor games were also there, but i am not interested in them.
Cleanliness is maintained nicely.
Totally its really a nice place to spend a sunlit day, as a team.

Here's the pics..

We enjoyed nicely...
Have happy Week ahead..

Enjoy!!!

Trip To King Of Eastern Ghats!!

Last week end, we made a trip after long time.
We were searching for a place where we can go and come back within one day as we didn't have time.
At last we came to a conclusion that we will go to Yercaud.
My husband did not like to go there, because he has been there already, and he found nothing special.
But i wanted to go, wanted to see what is there in that place.
So we made this trip as picnic.
We reached Yercaud at 9.45 AM. From Salem it takes 15 minutes journey to reach the path for hill station.
From down, it takes around 1 hour to reach the place and the road is really good.
It has 20 hairpin bends, and really we enjoyed a lot.
Scenery was awesome, and climate too.
On the way, we gave stop in some places, and enjoyed by seeing the views.
As soon as we reached, we turned up to see the water falls ( ya that was the name written..)
We took more than 200 steps down to go there.. But after going there only we realized that no water was falling there.. :( But it was good to see the hill from there.. water came like tap water.. It was really difficult for us to climb up.. after climbing up, a localwala told that May month is the proper season to visit this place and at that time there will be plenty of water in the falls and summer festival will be there..
Then we took steps towards the lake.. Lake was really good and we went for boating...
Inside that lake, there was a park ( they call it as "Deer Park" ) for children.
After that we went to a temple, i forgot the name of that temple.. But it had nice architecture.. It takes 8 KM upwards from lake. Then We went to the famous "Shervarayan" temple. It was really nice to see. There was a special thing, we have to bend completely to reach inside the temple.
There were three view points.. One is "Pakkoda point" ( Till now me and my husband are thinking why they have kept that name for this place. My husband told, the view might have pakkoda's shape :-). I told , in olden days there might be a famous pakkoda shop over there, and people might have come to have pakkodas and see the view..So the name came.. tell me if you know the real reason behind that name ). The other two view points are "Ladies seat" and "Gents Seat" ( ya.. thats how they call it..). View of the hill was awesome from these three places. Other than these, there was a church over there. And there was a rose Garden.
Climate was so nice... From morning to evening, same climate was there..
We forgot all our worries and we enjoyed..
On that day, I wrote in my diary, " I visited one more nice place in my Life"
Here's the pics..
