Panchgani and Mahabaleshwar
I believe that the god manifests in the purest form in two ways: Nature and Kids. In the present trip to Maharasthra (Kolhapur, Pune and surrounding places) has made me spend time with both forms of the god.
Kids: Mahi and Juhi, my friend's kids
Yesterday we visited Panchgani and Mahabaleshwar. Here is a panoramic view of the Krishna valley taken from Kate's point in Mahabaleshwar.
A couple of miles from Panchgani, we stopped at a view point from where vast expanse of valleys surrounded by various "gads" can be seen. My friend has got a beautiful, well-maintained (unlike me) Zen-Estilo. Beautiful place, beautiful car, is not it a good idea to try your hands on some advertisement for Maruti? Here is the result ;o)
Mahabaleshwar is known for Strawberries. Bought Strawberries here that were plucked right in front of us. I tasted Strawberries (in fruit form) for the first time here.
On the way back, we stopped at Mapro (one of those fruit extract processing companies). Although the processing section was not open, we enjoyed testing some of the fruit concentrates before buying Strawberry crushes, Strawberry chocolates, etc. My friends in office must now have started guessing what short-eats to expect when I return to the office on Tuesday. Hey! Stocks are very limited ;o)

Colleagues may guess which short eat is coming their way, but it remains to be seen if the short eats survive Sridhar till Madhu makes it back to office. :o)
ReplyDeleteThe maruti ad is nice. The short eats must survive everyone till they arrive in office - after all there is now documentary evidence of what you guys did. Else ...
