Nice pictures and write up!! I wish to be there some day!!

@Akaushik : Thank you from the trekking team. Next time lets see if you make it.

@brraj : Sadly, Jhum(Brandon's wife) snatched the flower from me in the end and carried it back home as a present for Kennisha (Hope I got the spelling right here)!

Brandon we should have gone on those early morning drives we always planned.

Great Going!!

You bet man. All we should have done was to wake up on time

Anyway, there is always tomorrow and hope you move to Bangalore too. We have meets quite often.

Hope you saw the other thread. the drive to Toonur lake

Rajeev, and myself have discussed this at length as to how many people will say "SIGH!" after the pics. So dont you worry, and cheer up!
Just make sure that you dont miss out on the next one... :P

Yeah man, I wish I joined although I'm not a trekking kind of guy. I've already almost confirmed for that next meet for Nagarhole/Bandipur trip. You guys are also joining, right?

preetam_KORG · 19th February 2010, 11:28

Hope I can make it, if I am not travelling. Around 7 people signed up already.

You forgot to send me the list!! will check the other thread. Good to see that families are also involved in the meets otherwise what meets I have seen in north are mostly about partying and showing off their machines.

Anybody reading this in delhi who has an apetite for this kind of activity then I am game...

Lovely pics and travelogue Preetam. This has always been on my list of places that I must visit but havent been able to make yet ! Your travelogue convinces me that I must make plans soon !

raj.barcode · 20th February 2010, 14:54

Do visit if you want to before end of the month otherwise it is good to push it to September or October to experience the clouds better. In summer the charm is missing as i have been told by people who have visited the place in April and May
