There are some really funny ones in there from other autorickshaw teams.
How many of you have sighted a big cat in wild? Will all of you agree that sighting it for the first time is a nerve-breaking, shaky, crazy, ecstatic, intoxicating, heavenly, euphoric, blissful and rapturous…….., short of words to explain, state of mind and body! All eyes still, hoping another sight of the shy animal petrified motionlessly for another few seconds. No chance, assured by the whispers of the guide. Everyone on board was busy browsing their cameras, for the best clip out of multiple shots taken in few seconds. Triumphantly, only my camera crowned the honor with one better close-up with a promise to share it with everyone later.
Soon, we sighted one more leopard crossing the road much closer, but that one was in haste and soon out of sight before, anyone could shoot it. The guide and driver were unanimous view of our better luck to spot two, too shy animals so easily in our first few minutes. I feel, they were right because back home, surprisingly we were informed that none have sighted any big cat that morning.
Very interesting. I have heard about it, I think I read it some where. Also, this brings the points of being able to share ‘other’s stuff’ or ‘recommendations’ or likewise. I have been thinking about having a page or a widget in side-bar where people can add things like ………… ” I read this somewhere and here is an excerpt and then the link goes to the original web site…
What fellow ghumakkars think ? , opinion time.
There has been an auto rally last year as well and I dont remember who organised it , but my former company had tied up with it and we promoted the same..it was mainly foreigners and expats who partcipated
In Chennai, there are regular auto races at ECR by the auto drivers ..in fact a movie has been made on the same
And I think its a great idea, Nandan
