Gokarna – much more than OM beach

By

Gokarna is about 453 km from Bangalore and 165 KM from Hubli. We started by train at 7:45 PM and reached Hubli early morning at 3:45 (though arrival time was 4:30 AM – Trains do reach early in India also).

Normal check –in time was 12:00 however staff made the rooms ready by 10:30 and we checked in to relax.

Ranthambore – My Machaan???

By

We broomed the place under the tomb with a make shift Jhadoo and sat down; it gave us fantastic view of partly dried lake with deer grazing in the marsh. Amazingly there was no Machaan, to tell you the truth we forgot that it was a must at all the locations. Hours passed and we documented the deer and small carnivorous animals. At sunset, the wind direction changed and I could smell very strong tiger urine as and when the wind blew. It began to worry me a bit due to my experience in jungles watching and spotting tigers; I knew we were in the tiger territory for sure.

Dwarka and around / द्वारका – श्री कृष्ण की कर्मस्थली

By

यहाँ एक बात मैं स्पष्ट कर दूं की हम लोग ज्योतिर्लिंग मंदिरों के बहुत विस्तार से दर्शन, पूजन, अभिषेक करने के इच्छुक रहते हैं तथा ज्योतिर्लिंग मंदिर के लिए अपेक्षाकृत ज्यादा समय की योजना रखते हैं अतः हमने श्री नागेश्वर ज्योतिर्लिंग मंदिर के लिए अगले दिन के लिए अलग से प्लान किया ताकि पहले दिन द्वारका दर्शन बस से भी नागेश्वर के दर्शन हो जाएँ तथा अगले दिन अलग से भी यहाँ आकर अभिषेक और दर्शन कर लें.

A short write-up on Digha

By

Known for the beauty of the beach and the special sea-side food hubs, Digha is a wonderful visiting paradise for the visitors. Tourists mainly spot two places, the old Digha beach and the new Digha beach.
New Digha is much much more crowded compared to the old Digha. And as expected we visited both the beaches.

Jaipur : Chokhi Dhani and Sightseeing

Jaipur : Chokhi Dhani and Sightseeing

By

Finally it was time to have food and it was so sumptuous that we forgot to click the images. There were 5 kinds of vegetables, 3 kinds of chapattis, curd, sweets, desi ghee and I don’t know what else. After meal my only thinking was that if they fed so much then for some extra charge they should also provide a bed so that one can sleep then and there if felt so. But indeed it was a bad idea even I can’t imagine people sleeping and burping at this beautiful place. So, I scolded myself for such a bad dreaming and we came out more than happy, filled till neck, and started the engine to find a bed as soon as possible.

Ranthambore

By

Ranthambore tiger reserve was organizing its annual animal census in the nation park and was looking for volunteers. Initially we thought that it would be just like a jeep safari in Jim Corbett National Park and would be fun to count the wild animals for a national level census.

Jaipur : Kite Festival and Forts

By

There was a famous kite master of Jaipur; Babu Khan. He must be some kind of previous champion because he was alone getting 50% attention of media and tourists and also flying the longest chain of kites.

Then started the cultural and dance program. Without any effort one can easily notice the way people of Rajasthan dress themselves, especially the ladies. It was extremely colorful coupled with bangles and ornaments.
