Karwar!!!

It was a much awaited trip....almost bunked office on Friday ..myself and r did lot of shopping ..and the TT was in front of my house at around 5:15...we picked rest of the gang and headed towards karwar :)..The opening song was "Ninnindale" ..by the end of the trip it evolved to be the all time favorite of the gang..it was the maximum played song.....but I doubt if the TT driver started hating it [ his taste was some pathos like masanada hoovu,auto raja..songs like that]...

And ya...lots of kannada songs..and I enjoyed each of them :)

On the way had dinner at Kamat@Tumkur..Reached karwar around 9:30 in the morning.

EstuaryView Resort looked good..had breakfast and headed to Rabindranath Tagore beach...was expecting a few poems from sdks ..looks like he was too busy playing in the beach....the poet in him was not much awakened at the Tagore beach!

R and M went back to their childhood..and did some "kappe goodu" in sand...I supplied flowers to them....and did some rangoli work on the sand...M was very encouraging and added a copyright to it :)

Later went back to the resort had lunch...ppl liked gobi manchuri a lot...other dishes were ok.

After lunch went to the Devbagh resort...was expecting to do some parasailing,banana ride...and stuff...but had to be happy with just kayaking...that too many of us din't opt..as it didn't seem very interesting.

Actually me and D wanted to go the Spa over there.....and K wanted to go to SPA only if Aish wud do it... :)...but what to do....karwar is tooo far from Mumbai!
Played throw ball there...guys initially were hesitant to play..they wanted to play volleyball...but later they too enjoyed throw ball more than us :)

Took a lot of sunset photos at the beach...experimented a lot with my camera...tried to capture sun in all possible ways !

On way back to resort...myself,sdks,M and K walked back ...the kali bridge was awesome :)

Back in the resort had some snacks and vodka chocolates :)..played UNO...and this time it was P who realized what the game was !!! :)...just bombarded him with draw 2s and 4s :)

After dinner did a lot of chit-chat..teased ppl with all possible ppl :)..this is the time when P became too active and I guess got back a lot next day !!...and am sure he has a loooong way to go ;)

Next day...we had breakfast..and headed to snorkeling...me and M opted out ...rest did snorkeling...some saw fishes,rocks underwater..I had to be happy with 1-2 jelly fishes on the beach :(
And yaa...everyone inspired by Mungaru maLe..tried floating on water....with great difficulty me and Sh did float on water.

After this...we came back, had lunch and started to Yana....but on the way gotto know the road towards Yana is bad :( ...so headed back to Bangalore...watched "chak de India" and "Bommarilu" in the TT...after watching bommarilu...I guess most of the guys dint sleep...or started dreaming :)

Was back at home at 5 am Monday.

All in all a great trip...thanks to sdks for organizing this .
