It is a quaint little place tucked away on a hill top, some 70 kms after Mysore. The journey till the hill top is the awesome part of the trip. There were 11 of us. 6 in a Bolero and 5 in an Indica.
We had many a stops before we could reach the temple. For breakfast, to refuel the vehicles, to click never-will-I-see-such-beautiful-sights pictures and to catch up with the other car. Well, in our car, the main topic was car mechanics. Grrr. There were 4 guys and they didn't talk another word about another topic. If by chance, they did, it was about stocks and shares. Oh god!! But it was nice, teasing them about it later. :POn that day, the Creator was in a mood to be artistic. Wherever we saw, we saw beautiful patterns of clouds. Clear blue sky with grey clouds. The weather was awesome. We got some great pics too.
We were given good food at the temple. It was filling. We went around the hill, for a small trek and reached at a place where you could see only greenery. Well, only hills and clouds and nothing else. For people from cities, this is a rare and fulfilling sight.We headed back by 3pm. On the way back too, we had many many pit stops. For coffee, for snacks, for jackfruit, for tender coconut, for dinner and for some photos. We also got to see rainbow. We went crazy, acting like kids, acting like we have never seen one before.
It was an awesome trip and special one in few ways. 1. one of our friends will be going to an MBA school, so this will be her last trip with us, for some years to come. 2. 2 couples are married recently and this was their first trip with their friends as couples. 3. one more couple will be getting married and this will be their last trip as single guy/girl.
Nevertheless, that day/trip was one of the many good days/trip for our group. We are used to having great time whenever we are together and we did just the same this time too.
