tour....memories contd.
Slipping in to the bed by 9.30 pm, outside town was really cold. Every one seems to be tired. Afraid of getting late for the next morning everyone went in deep sleep, except someone who had a habit of whispering adventures of their life all through the night.
Woken up next day morning, we moved to Rajamala, National Park under Eravikulam division. The trip to Rajamala was exciting, but after reaching the spot, we found a long que waiting for their turn. After a bit of confusion, every one moved in to the que. after getting ticket, we found that the bus which can accommodate only 20 people and now the team have to be divided in to two. Slowly we moved upside to see the much awaited animals....... 20 minutes drive to the top offered lot of dreams to our students as they felt that there would tigers roaring around, lions gives them blessings and langoors offer them bananas. Nothing happened other than the surprise that is it a national Park or some isolated place that fools the visitors. As quoted by Neeraj, don't even think of coming to this place even in dreams. you can only see some bakaras whcih we can even find in any part of the world!
Moving from Rajamala,to the tea garden museum which managed by Tata by enjoying the scenary was better than the experience many had in N.P. The screening of a short film was just waiting for us there. The visit really was worthful. The factory also displays the process of making tea from tea leaves. Our trip made a happy bye to the museum by 2.30 p.m.
Next and last spot is Mattupetty Dam. A beautiful site. A Very romantic destination which attracts thousands of visitors. After reaching this spot, many students in the batch must have thought that they should have bring their loved ones than coming as a student group. Students were not in a conditions to move to bus, becuse of the surroundings, but the fear of losing the bus pushed them to occupy the seat before the bus leaves.
After a long travel of around6 hours in bus, we reached the guest house in MG University at 11 p.m. shifting luggages and students to the Guest house we could see that only 22 students get bed, and rest have to sleep in the floor. Not even an extra bedsheet was available there. Mosquitos all around. Any way that night also passed without much problem, but it was the starting of a big incident which I have not faced before............!
