Nagala Re-visit

"Whom did you like the most in this group?" Biju asked.. "Come on yaar... don't be shy... which girl or lady did you like in this group?" We were having an intro-session at the 2nd pool in Nagala on a Sunday afternoon. Biju was the organizer who took the challenge of taking 82 members, most of them first-timers to CTC's most favourite trekking spot, the Nagala western entry. We had started from Koyambedu at 5:30 AM and after a short stop at Poondi reservoir, we reached Nagala at 8:30. Photo courtesy Karthik R After a quick breakfast of Sweet Bun, bananas and frooty, we started the trek at 9:00 AM. I got my first shock ten minutes later when my Nikon D80 declared 'she' was not working on that Sunday! Good bye to all the plans of practising 'people portraits' and the blog post! :-( I was left with just the Fuji finepix XP 10 . However 'she' was only 'cool' underwater. Above the water level, she was just average! Any ways, I d...

Vof & Hemkund Trek - Day 0

Day 0: Aug-10-2007 7:30 PM: Oh God! I am half an hr late! (yeah.. yeah.. I can hear you guys... " Whats new in it ". Right?). Anyways I have around "Two and a Half" hrs to reach Old Delhi Rly station and catch MUSSOORIE EXP! So why should I worry?

Finally I got my window seat in a bus that within 5 mins became a crowded (sorry.. its ' over-crowded '!) bus. It was showing 8:15 in my mobile when our driver decided to start the bus! Thank God! Atlast! Shall I sound the bugle for informing the start of my journey? Wait a min! Whats that? Traffic jam ! Oh god! Not now!!! After listening to a dozen latest hits, hundreds of ads and many requests from Sheela Dixit to Delhi people to drive Safely and Sensibly on various FM stations, we had reached just MahipalPur at 9:00! One more hr to go! All sorts of pictures started ...

Sharavathi Backwaters - A Toast to Peter and CTC's 3rd Birthday!

T he flight had taken off at the right time and now we were flying steadily above the cotton clouds. When I looked through the window, I could see tiny houses and the trees far below. Huge mountains appeared as small hills... I was lost in thoughts about my loved ones when I heard a sweet voice announcing refreshments! I looked down the aisle and saw a beautiful air hostess coming towards me pushing the food cart. She had the most charming smile I had ever seen, and at that moment, I knew I was in love! She said something which I didn't hear at first. "Hmm.. her voice is so soft, it is barely audible. Sorry mom.. you are going to have a hard time hearing your daughter-in-law after our marriage!!!" I tried hard. Still I couldn't hear a thing. She came very close and shook my shoulders. At first, I didn't feel a thing. Again she shook my shoulder, This time I felt it... and also heard it clearly "Swalpa jaga beedi" (please give some way) Suddenly I was aw...
