Last weekend we, along with friends decided to drive down to Masinagudi, nestled amidst the verdant foothills of the Nilgiris in Tamilnadu.
It was a pleasant break that involved...
* driving through the lush Bandipur and Mudumalai Wildlife Sanctuary.
* spotting some spotted deer.
* watching the cotton like clouds descend on the mountains.
* sleeping to the sound of steady rain outside.
* eating fresh ripe guava before the Malabar giant squirrel gets to it.
* exploring the wilderness hand in hand.
* finding a gurgling hill stream.
* picking up some pebbles for my succulents back home;-)
* becoming kids again when we saw a wild hare hop right before us and straight into the darkness.
* suddenly becoming quiet when we saw the bulbuls chirping in the morning on the evergreen tree.
* identifying the birds and the bees( oops, the moths)
* tasting some delicious locally grown gooseberry, jamun, bilberry jams
* devouring some sinfully delicious desserts.
* drinking cups of chai.
*taking in the colour green.
* enjoying every moment of the day.
* re-living those simple but beautiful moments through this post:-)
