Yelagiri Visit


It was a great week end trip to Yelagiri.Its about 150 Kms from chennai, poor man's ooty as it is rightly called.It is quite a silent hill to experience and feel peace.It definitely gives a break to the fast track world.It was a great experience to visit this place with my roomies (Anuj - Man with a vision( a great reader),PP- He is the one! Indo-German MOU ! ,Kang bo- A good quality product from Beijing,China (Hali - he calls me !!) and Deva - Emperor.

Travel Experience - It was a great travel ! we took a cab from chennai.The Chennai-Bangaluru highways was awesome.We did plan to visit golden temple at vellore,but we had to scrap the plan since TN Chief Minister had planned to visit.It was a good hill ride with 14 pin bends.Took couple of snaps on the way !!!

Reached sterling resorts ahead of time and were warming up ourselves (Not exactly!). We did try to capture the mesmerzing images of Deva !!Immediately enquired about cycling and went for cycling .We did cycling for about 20 Kms. Yelagiri is a small town where you can reach\visit all surrounding villages cycling.You find jack fruit and honey almost every place you go.The yellow juicy jackfruit tastes really good. Our first day visits includes Murugan Temple ( Kang Bo was renamed a Kang Bo Murugan),Lake (Cycling),Jack fruit stalls,Photo session(Deva - Bapre!! He felt the shake ,without opening KF bottle) , sound sleep @ sterling after the disastrous cycling. Also Kang Bo was teaching us POKER !!!

WOW ! We had a great BF (Heh its break fast man).We started to trek a long way from our resort.We trekked almost 20 Kms. We felt as if we had been to a health trip ...Cycling @ day 1 and Trek @ Day2. Take my words ...it was a great examiner for our health.It did make us realize that IT is ruining our health.Everyone must experience it !Its quite difficult but damn good. We did pass through some village and took some snaps . We trekked a long way up the hill to see a small temple over the hill.Its the end point!. Again Deva's photo session !! It was almost evening we complated our trek .It was a great experience over all ! Health Trip - to remember !
