Wayanad Team Trip

Trip to wayanad

It was a team trip having Zoho Business , Zoho Calendar , Zoho Vedio and Zoho Notebook.
We were 20 altogether started on 19th Dec 2009.

Before boarding the train :-

Every one were busy packing their things and getting ready for the tour.
I hope none of us worked on 19th Dec, It was my best friend (Manojkumar) birthday had a lunch with him.
I left home with suganthi to get dinner for my team.My mom prepared some dish for our team to have it in the train while travelling.It was around 5:30 PM when we got food to our office , everyone were waiting for us and this time my team mate Mangai could not come for the trip , where I felt very bad. We order her to prepare some snacks ( Fried Baby corn and Gobi) for us.
As we had tasted it earlier in her home which I never had it earlier like that in anywhere.
We started at 6:00PM to the velchary railway startion and reached park town (Central) at 7:10PM and got into the train on time. The actual journey time for us was around 11 and half hour to the destination.

In the train :-

It was jam packed after the train started , I just got up to my seat and was sitting quietly for more than an hour. We had our dinner , Villu and Myself were eating like any thing as we had never seen a dinner like this ever before.

We had no other choice than to play cards in the train , It was Manoj , Suganthi , Raja and myself who were playing the game. Usally we play (Ass or Rummy).We opted for Ass and I think we played more than 8 games were I was the only person who didn't loose even a game. We went for sleeping at 1:00 AM.

Got up early at 6:45AM and refreshed ourself in the train , We reached Calicut at 7:45 AM. We had hired a mini bus and started towards Wayanad where we had to travel 3 more hours. On the way to Wayanad we had our breakfast and reached Wayanad at 12:15 PM to a hotel Mint Flower.We had booked 3 rooms and a Dormitory with 10 beds , room service were really good.We took bath and had a lunch there. Lunch was pretty good.We started to shuchipara falls from there at 2:00 pm. Reached there by 4:00 PM had lots of fun till 5:30 PM.We were back to room at 7:30 PM.We arranged for a camp fire and played some games with a dinner at the end of it.

Few other place we visited were Kuruva Island , Edakkal caves and forest.
Really nice place to visit all these.

The busiest month every had.

Hi ,

After a long time , really I did not have a time to write a blog.This month I had good outing and all the 30 days were busy with study ,work and fun.

1st Week End (Nov 1st 2009)

I had been to Bangalore with my father to attend a marriage of our family friend.
My father took me to the place where I had born, It was was new to me.There is a old lady ( house owner of that home where we lived running 80+ years) was so surprised to see me after 20+ years. She could recognize my father and she told me that "I took care of you and your mother when your were was born in my home". She really blessed me from the core of her heart , It was really heart touching movement.

My dad showed me the place (his fast food center, Movie Theater , juice shop) where he had enjoyed his bachelor's life.
It took my father to his golden period and he started singing (Gnabagam Varuthey , Gnabagam Varuthey from autograph movie).

Happy week end for my father and we were back home.

Monkeys Drama in the falls

Hi ,

Once again to the same falls with my friend Ragavendran and his colleagues, we were eight of us.
We started from his home by car (Tavera 9+1 seater).We were the heroes to that place since we had already visited that place.It was almost the same story as described in the previous one.
But this time the experience was quite different from the last visit.
Last time when we went to that place we could not go till the falls(main falls). We just enjoyed its stream (running water) and were back to home since we found it difficult to climb the hill and we were running out of time.This time we planned to reach the eye of the falls.We went easily till the place where we had visited last time and from there it was so difficult for us to climb up the rock.

I am sure without the help of my friend ragavendran , I could not have crossed that place.
I should be very thank full to him.He literally carried me on his shoulders.When we reached the end of the place we found that we have to swim across the stream in order to enjoy the falls.
We were able to see that from our eyes , but could not go there as we don't know swimming.
Few among us went to the end of the falls and enjoyed that place. Me , Ragavendran and other who did not know swimming we just enjoyed in the streams.I wanted to take some snap shots were we had (nokia N95 and Sony Cyber Shot) cameras belongs to Ragavendran.We had them on the plastic cover , I just opened it and took some snaps and kept it safely into that plastic cover.Few seconds later a monkey came very swiftly and took the cover top to the hill (40+ feet) there is no way to reach the place.It just left that cover without any damage.

My heart were pumping like anything as I was the last one to use it.I felt the mistake was mine and I was in neverous.Everyone of us were tensed , we were trying our level best to get it down.One of my friend by name Viki started climbing the hill to get it , but he failed as he could not reach the place as easily.Every one of us were trying to get it down.But all the ideas failed.

We were waiting there for more than an hour without any solution to get the things down.
After few more minutes another monkey came to the place of that plastic cover and opened it. The monkey took the camera from it and left it down the rock ,the camera bounced on few rocks
and was about to fall on the gound , but I caught it safely within my hands.Now all our thoughts were on the mobile, we had a great confusion here know, We don't know whether the mobile is still in the plastic cover or is it somewhere else near the cover.

Again my friend Viki went to the place tried really hard to reach the plastic cover(risk bearing task).He got the mobile , every one start clapping seeing the mobile in his hand.We got back the things after 31/2 hrs. Thanks to Viki for his help.We were back home happily.

Bharath
