Let me tell you a story ...

As usual this year's YearEndTrip was a nice get-together. The total head count started off with around 20, then moved to 17 and then it was 12. Finally only 10 people made it. Yup, little less crowd, but there was lots and lots of fun. Let me tell you the story of Meghamalai in pictures :-)

It took 5 hrs for 300 kms. But the last 40 kms took 4 hrs. Can't really go above 20 kms/hr. This is Sudhir driving crawling his car.

 

Well the roads are bad. But the surroundings were quite scenic:

 

Most of the time, we were traveling along the banks of a dam and you can shoot a load of post card pictures. Here is one by Ravi:

 

 

The bungalow we booked is located at one end of the dam:

 

Nice view isn't it? Finally we arrive to the "Cloud Mountain Bungalow":

 

 

It was almost evening when we got there. We had a "lunch" and then sat down for a small "talk" session:

 

Which turned out to be fun:

and even more fun:

 

or should I simply say hell lot of fun?

 

yes, all of us enjoyed the conversations:

 

Despite all that, people who are quite in nature, were indeed quite  ;-)

 

Dec 6th is Sahana's birthday:

So, celebrations:

 

 

While everybody was busy in tasting the cake, one was very busy in continuing to blow off all other candles:

 

After dinner, we had entertainment. Don't get bored/scared. Its not the same usual 4 step dance by Thanigai:

 

It had nice stories

 

rhymes

 

songs

  

and dance

 

The next morning, we all went out for a nice walk:

 

where someone met with his old friend:

 

who ran off seeing him:

 

Did Thanigai learn a new dance step?

Nope. He still knows only those 4 steps and it was him participating in a "stone throwing competition". Here are the others:

Enough of the trip, back to the main event. Anjac's wedding:

 

The story ends here. Hope next Year-End-Trip will see a lot more participation and much more fun.
