Qualis is what came up finally and the first pick up wuz at sharp 5.30am. Teju takes the driver's seat. Then the coordination...coordination strts up wid the next pick up point where Jo n Vandana joined in. By then, i wuz only on calls n msgs and the alarm bells strted ringing loudly in my head this time.Harshi n Ammu joined in as well, next Pri n me. Lastly shilps had to be picked, by now the chit chat and all the excitement already in the air.



We landed at Kemmangundi after tht splendid drive thru the Ghat section, simbly soooooperb i say. Then we checked in, an hour late than the time we expected to.Tht day after the amazing oota and ofcourse majjige which Jo seemed to finish one after the other, we headed to hebbe falls.That as per plan, which later turned out to be a lovely trek over the deserted hill on the way to Hebbe falls. Oh tht trek wuz perfect beginning, completely in sync wid the adventure tht wuz to unfold.

Evening my idea of walking upto Shanti falls, this wuz an unexpected one.We strted walkin up and Shilps, me heading the gang. And me reminding ppl tht we were nt there to take picz of every leaf and every ant on the way. Yeah i know i wuz just too tuff on everyone askin 'em to move it all the time.



Then suddenly realised, the way back in the jungles without torches wud be too much to take in.Bcuz of the route tht we had to head back wuz way too adventurous so we made it..i mean just made it in the rite time by then we were welcomed by Glow worms on the way. Lovely sight to see! Oh reallllyyy..wonderful..And thankfully just the glow worms welcomed us and not the leeches n snakes tht the place is actually famous for ;)

Then we had lotsa drama in Room1, with the two best actors part of the nautanki.We enacted the famous Deewar dialouge with a twist. This time completely Hatke..full bollywood ishtyle.Lol..And the very famous 'back to back' picz. This highly confidential. ROFL..



Dunno when the next day began, destination Kalhathi falls. Nothing wud be predictable thts wot the whole mantra wuz, not much there so we headed to Bababudangiri. Again surprises in store, we lost our way reached Mulhangiri this time. And this by far wuz the best place in the trip, drive to the peak of this hill wuz amazing. Cant find adjectives to describe tht feelin within..Speechless..



Clouds in ur reach, and u at tht level of happiness. We walked thru the 1000 odd steps and everyone in chorus wuz in awe of this place. Wuz beautiful so to say the least..

Then on the way back halted at Belur, Halebid for few min. Headed home with a gr8 feeling and sense of achievement tht this unpredictable trip turned out to be the most exciting and fun filled. THE END? Naaah..therez lots to follow with this lovely gang who believes in going with the flow :)
