Tour to Ooty - Part 1

It was a serious day in the month of may and it all started with ramesh sending a mail with proposal to go to ooty as it had been long time the teams had been gone on a small tour….we all agreed for the same as it had been long time we had gone outside Bangalore. All the team members agreed and we sent mail back to ramesh that we are ready for tour.

Though we all had agreed to go to on the tour some of the team members were still not sure whether they would be able to join to the tour...this suspense went for another 3-4 days and it was decided who is going to join the tour and not…..except my manager…who had a injury on his leg…the fun part of it was that we had named the persons who were not able to come as “GADDAAR”...it was fun calling them with that name.....at last the day of the starting for the tour had come..9th may 2008...8 pm in the evening....while we all were watching IPL match we got the news that Vivek (my manager) is also joining us on the tour and our joy knew no bounds.....it was 11 pm in the night.....after our dinner we had started....in the tempo traveler we had booked....it was a 13 seat vehicle which was comfortable for 10...which first when seen I felt....”...TV, DVD player.....”here are the names that were on the tour....me, Vivek, ankur, ramesh, piyush, saleesh, kamanna, veeru, santosh, lokesh....and not to forget the name of the our driver mani....it was 12 in the night and we were out of Bangalore moving towards Mysore.....meanwhile it was all fun the tempo in which we were going....it was a good photo session and it was all about singing....dancing.....

It was 2 am in the morning and we were in the city of Mysore....passing through the streets of the city and for the first time I had a look at the Mysore maharaja palace.....it was shining in the lights in the night....after that it was all about taking a short nap.....it was 4 am in the morning....I got up with the morning cold wind blowing through my ears....we were passing through the madumalai forest which was famous for elephants in India....about half hour after entering the forest we were on the mountain section of the road which leads us to ooty.....some distance into the mountain section we see that we were unable to see the road ahead which we thought at first to be think fog.....and it turned to be rain....it was then we realized that we were in the midst of cloud with rain all around us.....
