Agra and the Taj

Image
A nother trip planned and executed in the last moment! Agra was never in my list for this year. But when Wilson and his brother Livi came to Delhi and after spending a couple of days in Harydwar & Rishikesh , Livi declared he to see the Taj. He kept on saying he has to see the Taj and take a photo standing in front of the epitome of Love! Neither myself nor Wilson were actually interested. Also we were tired after the 2 days in Haridwar. Moreover, I thought "Epitome of Love.." my foot! However these lil brothers can be very hard to convince and they have their own methods of convincing us! {I know because I'm also a younger brother to someone.. :-) } We could sleep only for just 5 hrs after coming back from Haridwar. The taxi came to pick us at 6:00 AM. Livi was excited and he sat in the front eagerly watching everything on the way while the other two of us slept peacefuly in the back seat! When we woke up it was around 9:30 AM and we were somewhere in Uttar Prades...

The History and Geography: Most Indian forests are notorious for its notorious occupants. The daakoos of chambal forests. The ULFAs in Assam forests. And who can forget Veerappan who terrorised the 3 state forests (kerala, TN and Karnataka) After his death in 2004, the forest dept has opened the area for trekking. For this they have set up a Eco-Development Committee that is run by locals, who are responsible for the forest management. If you need more info abt the trek and other activities in the area, please access the following link: http://www.mysterytrails.com/mysterytrails.htm And now the plot: After cooking the plan in my mind for a long time, I managed to do a trek with 3 other friends in Bangalore. My plan was to get down at Bangalore on my way home. spend 2 days trekking in Veerappan land, and then continue journey home. The poor souls who stood by me from the start to the end were 1. Apoorv Badami, my ex-colleague from mumbai. 2. Karunakaran, my collage mate. 3. Sathish, K...

Renukaji - Himachal's hidden surprise!

Image
2-3 May 2009 Renukaji - Himachal Pradesh "We should plan at least 2 trips in the month of May. That's excluding the Delhi visits and the weekly ' Friday-night-chuski ' trips to India Gate!. We will plan somewhere in Uttaranchal or Himachal Pradesh. We need something like our last trip to Haridwar & Rishikesh that had everything we needed. It was wild, with lots of adventure and a bit holy! (Well... we can compromise on the last one, but the other factors are must!) Please guys, we need to plan it soon!" Shankar said. He was planning to move back to Chennai after completing 1 and a half years in Gurgaon. Initially he thought it would take at least 2 months to finalize. However the process completed pretty quickly and he was to report in Chennai on June 1st week. So that left us with only 1 month! Wasting no time, we started planning the trip. We wanted a place that’s close enough to drive, has some scope for adventure (preferably in water), good climate and mos...
