I know I'm late in de game... Its been exactly 100 days since I had been for a short trip... & to be more precise, for a pilgrimage..
It was on Jun 30th... Had to be ready by Early mrng 4 am... Sry it has to be late-night hr in my dictionary ;-P De most funny part was tat I had to lead de ppl coming wit me..& it was none other than my partner frnd (understood!)... Started de day wit a good-day biscuit & was waiting for others to cum & pick us up.
Jst got a call from de head of our trip asking us the directions & it was me who guided them.. By dis tym, yu shud ve understood tat hw easy or tough it wud ve been for dem 2 find us... Landmark given was Mast Kalandar/Hero Honda showroom... And my bad ;-( De roads were highly deserted & de street lights were all turned off...[right dhan... yaarume illaadha kadaiku yaaruku tea aathuvaanga;-P] Gud tat dey stopped a few steps ahead of hero honda showroom by giving a wild guess & V ended up walking hardly 200 metres to reach de cab..
And thus started our trip... We hav spoken so much even before realizing tat de cab driver understands 'Tamil'. Vada poche ;-P But... wat 2 do? Past is past... Nothin cud be done... Infact, he was really gifted to hav been accompanied by the 6 most beautiful women [literally chatterboxes] in the world... lol...
Spent our journey time by playing cards... And it was almost 8 am when we crossed Mysore... Had a hard time searching for restaurants on de way... Finally, got one in Nanjangud... Had our brkfst & dint want to leav de place without saying 'Hi' to the Lord Shiva der.. Here is de history behind the temple - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanjangud ... De temple was so very gud & I liked it so much.. Der was indeed an interesting belief inside de temple to check out hw many leaves in a tree r visible to us...
Headed towards Himavad Gopalswamy Betta which I would rather call as an abode of wind. Our pictures taken der wud reveal de same. But it was again an awesome place to be visited. So dis tym it was Lord Krishna who showered his blessings on us. Spent our tym enjoyin de weather over der & attempting to take pics...(though it was in vain :P) Our return from HG betta was quite interesting since v did take de bandipur road which was all de more adventurous.
So de final place of our trip was BR Hills. Lord Venkatesha happened to meet us oops its the other way around... We got to see the large pair of slippers presented to the Lord by the Local tribes and de story behind the slippers getting torn evry two yrs was nice 2 hear. We were awaiting to watch the sunset but unfortunately we couldn't. However, de place was worth visiting.
Started bak to blore & reached A2B directly for our dinner. Nothing mre 2 say... The trip was overall enjoyable & Yes, I enjoyed it personally;-)
Got to go...(go go goaaaaaaa...) More to follow ;-) Keep waiting...;-P
A bientot! ;-)
