A holiday on Friday is indeed a welcoming sign for a great weekend, though its a different thing that mostly it evaporates so soon that you are left with just another weekend. But sometimes it just paves the way for an adventurous weekend, sets the mood for some real fun, and gives you the much required "time" to plan that exciting thing that has always been on your mind but couldn't take charge as everytime you discover it- you realize that you are almost through the weekend, so you prefer hanging around in your "comfort" zone rather than going "out of the way".So after a little discussion; and lots of convincing directed towards the "defensive" crowd of our group; few rounds of "santaape" (as we fondly term it, and when it seems as the only viable option left in the universe to move the subtle, aging, non-enthusiast child of ours), we did come up with something substantial and "BMC" was the word.
"Night Trek at Ramnagaram" is how they put it, while "bak-chow-di at night" is what we discovered it was(no offensive meant but instead a thanks to the great personality that helped us re-discover this already known "term" in altogether a new, fresh, and revamped accent.. cheers MADI!). Anyhow the trek seemed to take off with torches i hand, sleeping bags on shoulders, camera in hands, and blacked-out path. The legs started moving, the light started clearing the darkness ahead, and cameras started flashing and amidst all this we cruised along. Fences, rocks, muddy patches laid down in our path made it exciting for the "noob" trekkers to challenge their spirits. After long stretches of path exploration, we felt like reaching somewhere in the middle of nowhere; when suddenly innumerable stairs welcomed us. Half drained out, we continued the directionless, aimless mission of ours with never-ending flight of stairs. And then came the much awaited question, How many more? Reply: 150- done; 250 more. Hmm.. not that pleasing though, but is their any other option? Yes why not.. Red Bull, a dose of instant energy :)!!
So after a brief halt the exploration resumed; now through more challenging paths, with renewed spirits, with skewed vision, with lewd characters, and crude precision.. with some thinking "Shit man.. what a screwed decision!" Landmarks came and passed-by, but the path doesn't seem to end so easily. And then came the NEXT STEP.
