A day to remember - Team outing, 27 July 2007
As I approach the weekend, I find myself amid one of those memorable events, which I would like to remember always. Its outing time for our team. Though I was not interested in the very beginning to be a part of it, but at the end I am eating my own words. Yes, I would have made a big big mistake, if I had missed it.
We started at 7:45 am in the morning, from our office and headed to a resort 40 kms away from Bangalore. After an hour and half drive we reached the resort. The Mount View Resort is on the way to Nandi Hills. Though the resort was comparitively small than what I expected, it provided fun, entertainment, which was indeed unparallel.
We finished our breakfast and at around 9:45 am we headed straight to the cricket pitch. The cricket ground was a small one, where the best of the best bastmen found it difficult to score runs, courtesy the rules which were laid down. I was a part of the team which got eliminated in the very first match.
Thought I dint play much , I did find much interest in something else other than playing cricket. It was commentatiing. Through commentary I was able to crack some of the wild jokes. I assume both the players and the spectators had an awesome time, watching cricket and can I say listening to my commentary? well you have to comment on it.
After cricket it was lunch time. After lunch we proceeded to have a Shuttle Badminton tournament for the ladies. We ended it by the prize distribution ceremony. We left the resort at around 4:45 pm. It was a fun filled day, loads of things did happen. I wish to upload some of the snaps, sometime from now.
Its over and out from my side. I sure will post something this weekend.
Till then , cheers

Tribute to all the men in the armed forces
As I approach my 50th post I wish to dedicate it to all the men in the armed forces.
You have made our country proud and helped us to lead a secure life
Kargil Day
On this very day, I would like to remember our Kargil heroes.
It takes tremendous courage to leave a comfortable life, and join the armed forces. Subjected to adverse conditions and never ending enemies, these people do their best, spend sleepless nights so that, the other country men, can have a secure and peaceful sleep.
I salute these men of honour, who have made our country proud..
Regards
Sandeep

Day 2 - Sadashivgad, Gokarna, Murudeshwara
On May 20th, we proceeded towards Sadashivgad which is at little distance from Karwar. It was famous for its fort. One more attraction is the bridge which is over the river Kali. One more prominent thing to notice is this road which leads to Panaji. The road passes through a cliff. In other words the cliff has been split to make way for this road. Its just an awesome sight. The Sadashivgad fort is located on this very cliff. As you stand on the fort you get an awesome sight of the river.
From here we moved on to Gokarna. Its famous for the AtmaLinga in the ancient temple. We did offer a puja at the ancient temple. It was indeed a holy place. No doubts about it. It was the first time that I was here. I wish I get more chances to be there. Gokarna beach is also quite prominent. But here there were high tidal waves. Hence it was a short period before we headed on towards Murudeshwara
Murudeshwara is one of the famous tourist places of Karnataka. Its famous for the idol of Lord Shiva which indeed is breathtaking. After visiting the temple we headed towards the beach once again. It was the third beach in 2 days. We spent totally 4 hrs at the beach. It was 8pm in the evening before we retired back to the hotel.
Next morning we headed towards Kudremukh, Agumbe, Sringeri, Hornadu, Kalasa.
Coming up in the next post....

Day 1 - Jog Falls , Sirsi, Yaana , Karwar
We hit the roads on a rainy thursday evening, on a tempo traveller. Its indeed fun to have the company of rain especially while on a highway. We drove through Tumkur, Beerur, Arasikere and we reached Jog Falls early in the morning @ 6:30 am. Though there wasn't much an attraction at Jog falls, due to scanty rainfall during 2006, we did have a good time capturing snaps.
Then we moved on to Sirsi, which is about approximate 3 hrs drive from Jog Falls. Sirsi is famous for Marikamba temple. The temple indeed was an awesome place of visit. I wonder i never had been to that temple all these years. After offering a small prayer at the temple, we had lunch at a hotel in Sirsi. We then proceeded towards Yaana.
Yaana is a place famous for its cliffs. There are about 17 cliffs in total, that is what I heard. You could approach this place by two different routes. We probably took the wrong route and ended up walking 6 kms in total. But it was worth. Trekking is probably something which I enjoy the most on such an occasion. Walking all alone amidst huge tree cover , listening to the chirping of birds, huh, I call myself lucky to have done all these. After a lengthy trek we decided to move on. We headed to Karwar where we planned to halt for the day. The road which leads to Karwar is indeed an awesome one. You can see the Naval Base "Sea Bird" as you approach Karwar.
It was evening 5:45 when we reached Karwar. We decided to visit the Rabindranath Tagore beach. Yes it indeed was an awesome place. Standing on the beach, watching the lighthouse was indeed a special moment. For people from Bangalore, who are void of beaches, this sure was a moment to cherish. Before I could notice, it was already 8:45 pm, as we headed for dinner. It was at Karwar where we made a halt on the first day.
Second day indeed had loads in store. Coming up in the second post

3 day trip to Karwar, Gokarna , Murudeshwar - May 19, 2006
Hey there !! I am back. I ve found what I have been looking for, yes its a TOPIC. I wish to present, as a post, what I did on the three days of May 19,20,21 , 2006. Its about a trip which I was part of, something which will always remain fresh in my memory lane. Yes, it was my first trip with some of my cousins, whom I was meeting after a loooong time.
Basically my cousins grew up in different parts of Karnataka. I did not have much an opportunity to interact with them during my childhood days.
It indeed was unique, because the trip was not 1,2 but 3 full days.
I wish to come up with 3 posts, covering briefly about my places of visit.
