2008 just whizzed past me..

TThe sky on the banks of the River Kali in Karnataka..We were returning after a sighting of hornbills and I took this picture as we whizzed past in the jeep ..This was my last trip in 2008 . When I saw this picture this morning, I felt that the entire year had whizzed past me..here is a focussed shot of the same sky

River Kali

Some trips are planned, some are spontaneous, some bring in me the traveller, some a backpacker and some , a tourist. Some are laid back, some are very hectic, some are assignments, some are luxury, some are to chill out, some are to bond with friends, some are wild and adventurous, some are to relax in a hammock ,some are to learn, some are to unlearn, some are to slog and some are just to soak in all the fun..this trip was one of those..:)

A wild trip to Londa and Goa

This trip was wild..though it had little to do with wild animals - we did manage to see a sambhar deer when we crossed the Dandeli forests at 3 am as we returned from Palolem Beach ..Where did I go ? Londa, Ganeshkudi, Dandeli and Goa and it was really a wild trip on the banks of the River Kali where we had hornbills for company..I am completely exhausted and defocussed ..Just returned to Bangalore to realize there has been no power for the last four hours. I am off to Chennai tomorrow and will be catching up on all your blogs this weekend..Have a great week
