A trip to remember!

The last week had been an amazing break from the monotonous rigors of my techie life. I'd been to Coorg( karnataka) with my school friends for over 4 days . The climate, the ambiance and the company made me feel a lot better and happier after a long long time. The adventure sports like river crossing,mountain climbing,kaykayaing and treking kicked out the lazy bum in me!! Gosh it was fun time. Just when i thought all my mobility was shunted to the small little cubicle at office, this trip with ma best pals gave me breather !! The trip was even more special coz one of ma friend is going away to the Uncle Sam's land and this would be the last trip with us for a long time ! so here are some memoirs of the trip.. some glances of the landscape of coorg, the enormous wild life santuary and the tea estates of coorg. Hope u guys enjoy the pics!

The wild life santuary at "Nagarhole". To reach coorg, you've got to pass throught the 20 odd Kms wild life santuary!.. amazing i tell u!

The wild elephants roamin!.. They look clam in the pic, but i tell u they were pretty wild!!

thats how close we could get to it!!

The dark woods and empty road!!
The deers!!
The golden temple of Buddha!

The statue of buddha - all of GOLD!

Early morning view of coorg
The way to water fall and mountain climbing!
Dark and dangerous!
The "IRUPU" waterfall ( summer time - a lil less, the locals say in monsoon, its a devil!)
River crossing activity.. Looks easy wen u go down,the real fun is when u come back the same way!
The Bonfire and mad dance!!!
hehe!! RDB style :P (ikkis topon ki salaami!!)
And this is how your feet look after a day's ordeal!!

The breathtakin view of the (tata) tea estates!

Right under the water fall!
Extreme Right thats me!!! mountain climbing!!
Kaykaying almost falling over!!! :P
The Team!
And finally tired, happy and napping!!! The return back!!


It was one of the most memorable time i've ever had .. there were loads of them left ( 4 GB in total!!!) jus selected a few to give a glimpse of the entire journey! hope you guys liked the pics too

cheers!
