Wish I could make it for this

. But out of town for pretty much the whole month. Have a great meet guys.

luvurride · 1st February 2016, 23:24

Huh, I just booked the same weekend for Ooty!

Just a pointer: The Dhimbham ghat might throw surprises with jams unexpectedly. Please be prepared IF that happens! I have been a victim in 2 of my recent travels.

But as always, have fun and post those pictures for us to drool!

I was so looking forward to this drive. Even my family was excited about this. However, some constraints at work meant I could not sign up for this. :-(

My best chance is to wait to see if I can resolve work constraints and take a chance if some rooms are available at the last minute.

You guys have a great drive!

Thanks,

Hey, if you wished to join us, where was the necessity to wait for a Coorg confirmation ?

Are we missing something here ?
