Adventurous trip with non-adventurous ppl...



Day 1…

Hurray, we ended it finally…

I can shout it was adventurous, funny and exploratory but at the same time it was painful too… That was a gr8 trek we will never hav ny more…
It was completely unexpected plan, but we executed it in a gud style with lot of dynamic decisions…

Plan was proposed on Friday 29th Dec 2006 by our parasite deva, and we made all the preparations and took all the measures with in a day… for 30th Dec SAKLESHPURA TRIP…

Planned members were Deva, Ravi, Robin, Pradeep, Ajay and Satish [lucent]… But due to some fitness problems [throat pain and viral fever] we missed a partaker, even though we fail to see him physically, we had a gr8 time pass with his fitness problems recollection there. He is none other than Francis.., Ajay Francis

Here we start with a member lost team… Deva, Ravi, Robin, Pradeep and Satish [lucent]…

We started here on 30th Dec night @ 11:00 PM… the trio Pradeep, Robin and Ravi has come on track with quails from office and picked up the duo Deva and Satish @ our major flyover of Bengalooru [hebbal].

We started to sakleshpura at that nighttime… We had dinner @ one local five star hotel… Menu was thatte idly and paratha… And when it comes to bill question, we have preferred our arranger Deva as our CFO for this trip. [Now his responsibility has grown up… Organizer+CFO]

We had gr8 combination of Water, Miranda and 8PM whisky, which was proposed by Pradeep… and at last no body was able to sip it completely.

Lately every body had given rest to their body and had a nap in cab. It was a gr8 drive for driver while every body was resting, at the same time Lord Shiva has come into drivers’ imaginings and raised him to take all of us to dharmastala…

DAY 2:

Day 2…

It was 31st Dec morning 6’O clock, we landed at some place where no body knows where we were… our driver yogesh has waked up all of us and requested us to go for temple visit. We were shocked and asked the place name and he whispered it was dharmastala [where it was not there in our trek plan]. We compromised our self and we took back our way to sakleshpura.

While on the way back, we stopped @ gundya and fought for change of plan execution. Som ppl spoke out by expressing their will to go for MANGALORE[its near], and som argue for trek… finally we made it up with trek…

We started trekking @ gundya, its 3.5 KM’s of mountain trek and from there we get a railway track which will take us to edukumare after 14 KM’s of march.

We started trking the mountain, it was almost 1KM and our trekking champ Pradeep is almost losing the race… Even though he’s not carrying any luggage, he lost his pace and opted for a juice and glucose…

There after we reached railway track, hmmm simply to say we did not march on railway track, we did trek on track. Has to cross so many tunnels and railway bridges… Started with gud tempo, but slowly our liveliness in our trek has come down… juice, sprite and water bottles we stored for booze were over…

Best part of this trek was bridges. They were very dangerous to walk on them… located at very hieight, some different sounds will come when we walk on that, grease is applied to their bars, and if train passes by that way we were not having space to stand aside, Outta all these hurdles we crossed and we did it. Most hilarious part of this bridge cross-over was the way Pradeep walked all the way… his legs were a parted, his full concentration was on bars of bridge only… I think he has almost all gave up his life and crossed all the bridges… Ny ways we did it at last.

While we were rallying on railway track, we saw some couples who has come for that journey and were almost Outta control and oomph. They were walking with four legs but with a solo body. [Gentleman doesn’t have common sense to bring their better half to this kinda place].

We reached edukumare @ 5:00 PM and we rested there for some time. Then an old man has helped out route to road. We have to trek down the mountain of around 4 KM and we need to cross some rivers and lakes. Here we started and its almost 2 KM we reached small water fall… We need to cross that. [best thing is no body bathed on that day]

Robin: Hay, I feel like taking bath here…

Next moment: He slipped there and fell down in water… and he’s almost wet… [He took bath as per his hope]

Deva’s comment: Gud parking man, Robin

Next moment: Deva has fell down in water… [ppl giggles]

Satish: Gud parking Deva…

We moved from there, robin was fully wet and he was irritated to go ahead with that dress. Here comes the witty part, Pradeep’s woodland sandals…

Pradeep about woodland: How ever you use WOODLAND, nothing will happen to them…

The moment he crossed the water falls, his sandals were completely wet and those were slipping. He lost his pace completely.

It was getting dark. We took a break there, robin changed his bath costume [wet dress]. We generated energy our self and started wit gud pace and we reached a river for 400 mtrs…

Desc of this river are as follows…

  1. Cannot swim [Water level is not as much as]
  2. No transport medium
  3. Cannot walk [it was completely slippery]
  4. Cannot take support of hand.

Outta all these troubles, we cross the river with bare foot and no other support… Ppl were irritated and they are no more ready to do any thing more. By gods loveliness, we reached road from there with in 20 feet.

We were on road, we sat and started worried about transport… Pradeep and Robin had a fag. Deva and satish started giving some work to their mind about transport and ravi is neutral. Tried to stop so many cabs and lorries, no use. Unexpectedly, robin saw a cab which is at low pace, and finally recognized the cab and driver is of ours and tried to put his high-pitched voice to stop the cab, Ravi and Pradeep has noticed the same and they too started making noise about it. Finally we were in cab…

Mangalore is of 2 hrs from there and we started to move there. We all had a small nap on the way… We reached mangalore and we tried to find out a shelter in any near by hotel, but nothing worked out. We moved towards beach. Beach was first time experience for robin and he was much exited to b there. We had some fun there and we moved into town again to catch some restaurant to stop gurgling feeling with bubbly sound coming from small intestine.

At last we entered into pallki restaurant which has combination of dancing floor and restaurant. Our CFO Deva has tried to get best deal financially for dancing floor, but was not able to do it… very bad at his part…

We entered restaurant, we had dinner and finally we celebrated our new year there in that restaurant…

We left mangalore and started to moving towards dharmastala…
