This one will probably go down as the one of the best trips of my life. The reason is very simple, it’s because of the great Hilarious team we had and I knew before start that it’s going to be very big this time but not so much that I almost lost my life in it :-)……. Read on to know what I mean …. Coming to the write up I almost spent a week to find a suitable name for my post, the content was very clear I can write it in an hr but how to name it? , On what basis to name, it had every ingredient to make it the best one so the name should be as special as the moment, and here went the name, I dedicated this to the whole team which made it happen and it’s our Team Fubooz :-)...
The trip was an intense drama with all crazy stuffs which one could ever imagine being exhibited, everyone were charged up, including the driver who was forced to be so :-)… After this trip I always feel that at least there should be one marriage every month :-), so that we can plan for a trip ..…Driving a team requires a lot of co-ordination and I felt it started at the right time and we had the recipe ready a month before the event with mails floating across teams and companies, NDS to SAP, SAP to NDS, NDS to McAfee :-)... Like a Merry go Round …. The event was Marriage I am sure none of us would have imagined the outcome would be of this extent as the focus was only on the marriage part and even I dint had any plans for the event , Just bunked office (Took a formal leave :)) and threw myself onto my old office …. Hmmm back to my old office I was a bit nervous to meet everyone as it was my first visit after my quit and I felt great to meet again such wonderful people who were part of my life for quite some time, I really dint expect such a reception it was a very kind gesture shown even from my Ex- Manager :-), I am sure I wouldn’t have received the same from any other organization.... Another happier thing was my Name board was still there hanging at my desk, it was not because for my remembrance it’s just that no one replaced me after I left :-) (just kidding) … Next is time management which every one of us are poor in keeping up . Again we started late, a bit more late we would probably given a send off note to newly wedded couple. But I have to acknowledge the fact that if we were not late, we would have reached early , if we would reached early , we would have missed a lot of fun , So all izzzzzz well :-)… All the events which were triggered later was only because we left late so no regrets on this.
Hmmm let me begin the actual Game….. Time is running out and we are yet to switch our gears and make a move, finally we got out and boarded the Cab and it was time for masti, real masti … With our “Sur ka Maharaj Anoop Raj “ready to sing a Flory of songs to us as we begin antakshari…. But wait a moment, it doesn’t end here nor starts here as we had to halt because we realized the cab we boarded was a wrong one … Ha ha ha :-)…. Now this is what is called hilarious, we just got into some cab which was standing outside the campus? Or what was it?
What next? …If you people think we are going to sleep now then you are probably next to dumb :-)….. The real drama starts now, it’s not like Mani ratnam’s movie where he sits, plans, visualizes for years and starts the drama he has his limitations. :-).. We guys don’t, it was 11:30 PM when we stepped out from the marriage hall and the next half an hour any one on Hassan Main road wouldn’t have dared to see our pranks. My camera was the center of attraction and without which our trip could have missed a major blend …. We took crazy pics covering every possible corner; we were traffic cops, Ice creams wallas, we took many avatars which were all instantaneous, pictures speak more than words just take a look…:-)
It doesn’t end here, I thought of having a nice nap all night but very fortunately sleeping is not permitted when our group is around… One more round of photography and I thought uffff I am gonna sleep now, but for God’s sake it was T20 semi finals on that day ENGLAND vs PAKISTAN and my dreams of sleeping was a dream :-)…. What a close match it was, finally my dream came true with Pakistan loosing the match, we started dancing like hell and screaming at the top of our voice, After some time Knock Knock on the door the hotel boy warns to be silent, just goes to show what we can do at midnight 1:00 :-)... Hassan was out of bounds to bear us.. At last we slept at 2:30 to get up at 5:00 in the morning … At any cost we had to get up to enjoy our next day and the most daunting task was to make our boys woke up and it proved to be a bit tough but somehow we made it and there we go ahead for an exciting day …. Left Hassan at 7:00 AM without tea, breakfast … We were dam hungry … Next what? … Mulyangiri? , Kemmangundi, Belur? No first breakfast, on the way a beautiful restaurant hmmm my mouth started watering, but looking at the menu the pockets started burning... Coffee at just 40/- .Idly, vada I don’t even remember the price …:-)…So just a small coffee another round of photo session and there way go ahead again…
Next place was probably the most beautiful creation ever made by Man and the one which represents the Rich History of Hoysala dynasty, yes if you had guessed right its Belur I remember visiting it when I was very young but this visit was something amazing , no matter how true when we say history keeps on repeating every idol and statue in this famous Chennakesava Temple signifies that its true …
The Guide who showed us the temple was truly a knowledge hub who revealed some unbelievable facts which made me proud having born in a land which holds such strong culture and background , I was truly elated after this visit , I urge my readers to visit this place at least once and believe me you will be thrilled with the history . Just a hard fact, the time taken to build this temple was 103 years which goes to show the dedication and perseverance... Hats off to everyone who were a part of this mission. Next was the crunch time, its breakfast time had a quick breakfast and left Belur …..Left belur just to reach a wonderful place, I have never been to any place as this before hence it goes down as a very memorable moment …. It was like outside the world, admidst nature, far from mess, very peacefull …If there is anything Beautiful in karnataka its Namma Malanadu :-), another thing which made me pat my shoulder. By the way the name of the place is Mulaynagiri; the highest peak in Karnataka measuring 6317ft which was an absolute treat for eyes, very Steep Mountains with lush green and very dense forest though we dint reached the peak which I think was something we should have done considering how beautiful the temple at the peak was we couldn’t go due to time constraints and less provision for the cab to move over those small roads, but we dint miss the fun , time to exhibit our creativity by posing to some crazy pics , this time frame was simply ecstatic I can still sense and feel the fun even while I am writing we were on top of the world baby :-)…. Just goes to show how much fun a bunch can produce with the right people at any place on earth :-)…
Finally time was calling to stop hence we did and next what ?..... Headed towards Hebbe falls. Wait! My hand is trembling, I am afraid to write the next paragraph now started shivering a bit. But still I will manage ….Hebbe falls is a renowned waterfall in karnataka which gushes down from a height of 551ft …Road to hebbe, the road to hebbe is not as easy as one might imagine. It won’t be wrong if I say the road to hebbe was one of the most enthralling parts of our trip and that part is called the jeep journey. After a lot of negotiation, talks and hussles we hired a jeep which we thought was very expensive but later proved we were wrong. No other vehicle can be daring enough to be drone through those roads, a superb ride on extremely tough roads with some serious singing led us finally to hebbe ……

Now this is what is called hilarious, we just got into some cab which was standing outside the campus? Or what was it?
A small mess at the midst of wonderful evening downpour, we were almost settling down but a small confusion, anyways things got sorted out and we strode our way to a long wonderful journey….And now it’s dancing and singing time we had a great time in the cab, with hot pakkodas and mirchi baggies … We were getting very late, the crew were very hungry and eager to relish the taste of Hassan Chicken biryani and finally we are there , hmm our sultan was in brand grand suit , it was my first visit for a Muslim community marriage so was were curious to check how it would be … We decided to fresh up before attending the reception so a quick refresh and we are back to greet the couple , a very good reception from the family members and they served good food…

What a sight, a true nature’s paradise, the next episode was a nightmare for me I really feel extremely lucky and blessed for having being alive on earth … I realised how important it is to have your Life insured :-)… Now I have a life insurance :-)…Team fubooz steps into the rock embedded falls to take a nice swim . I slowly pondered around with small steps towards the center and there I go …Dupppppppp... I started drowing. One, two, three, I stepped into a deep hollow place it was very deep I virtually lost my breath I came up two times not able to screm for help totally lost my grip , my heart beat started incrementing .. Just 5 seconds and out would have been my journey to creamatorium then came a helping hand which pulled me out from heaven … I realised what life is. I wish it would not happen ever again …A wholehearted thanks to my life saviour. A black patch on such a wonderfull trip , slowly got my breath and relaxed a bit … The next 4 hours I was never in this world all thoughts came in hunting my mind and slowly recovered from my first ever tragic story .. Nice to write ones own tragic story though J….
Finally the end of our journey a wonderfull two complete days which I can never forget in my life … People say document your memories and that’s exactly what I have done … Finally a lesson learnt …” If you can’t appreciate both good and bad things you can’t grow as a person” Bad things are there to make you strong not to demolish you and I learnt a lot from this Bad thing.. Life is very very short make is as sweet as possible…Ta ta .. Bye Bye…And last but not the least ... Team Fubooz simply Rocks :-)...
