Here are some photos from my recent trip. Can you guess the places or things ? At least some of them ?
No cheating. No Google. Okay ?

Even the dark clouds could not deter the big banyan tree from looking into the mirror of serene water.

The waterfall… which place is this ?

You need minimum of 4 & 1/2 hours for this hiking.

And you get these to give you company alongwith with wolves, peacocks… plenty of variety.

Some of the sculptures were… umm… speachless

The famous Ajanta painting. They don’t allow flash or tripod inside the caves.

A closer look.. inspite of so much care the paintings are in dilapidated condition.

As per his wish, this guy’s tomb was made with Rs 14.75.00

After so many hurdles such as road being washed away, staying at a very small place, travelling in broken state buses, getting stuck in 3 KMs road jam, at last reached at this serene place.

Right now posting from sitting in front of this lake !

Rainy days

It is monsoon season and as usual, roads in Mumbai are waterlogged. But this time Delhi is also facing similar problems. And probably that’s why they are called rainy days… at least in these two cities. At every possible opportunity people try to run away to some place where they can find some solace from potholes.
Nonetheless, rains are beautiful too.

With sparkling droplets like shining stars, can you have anything more beautiful than this ?

P.S.- Tomorrow morning I am off to some place in Maharashtra. Monsoon and Maharashtra …. awesome combination.
That also means I am fully okay now. If you follow me on Twitter, you’ll know where I am & what I am upto.

Now, don’t grumble and wish me happy journey !

Canary Islands

Nisha — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 19:12:55 +0000

One of the most exotic places I want to spend my time is in Canary Islands, also known as the Canaries.

Situated just off the north-west coast of mainland Africa, this cluster of islands is a holiday paradise for everyone. Wonderful all year round weather conditions, great natural attractions, and booming nightlife make the islands a major tourist destination.
Whether you are going as a family, a couple or a bunch of friends; want to relax or try some adventurous stuff, it has plenty to offer. Just choose the right island and you will have a dream holiday in the Canary Islands.

One of the most popular and the largest of them all is Tenerife. From white sand beaches, waterfront opera house to 12,000 feet high volcano of Mount Teide, it has so much that you would not want to come back. If you climb Mount Teide during winters, you can often see it covered with snow.
And you can always find cheap Tenerife holidays to enjoy Tenerife for longer period.

Most of the tourists head to south of Tenerife as summer months are much hotter in there. Here the sea temperature drops further during winter but it is not very low to discourage you from swimming.

Every February, the island’s capital Santa Cruz hosts a fortnight long carnival. It’s the place to head for a hot, hedonistic period of stamina-sapping street parties, making it the perfect escape from cold, gloomy days of winter. It’s time to throw off the mantle of tourist and get into the Latin spirit.

Another popular island of the Canary Islands to visit is Lanzarote. It offers favourite weather all year round and a mix of white sands with black volcanic beaches, some of them secluded but close to local amenities.

Lanzarote holidays is an experience in itself.
During February carnival time, there are parades which are celebrated with Spanish gusto and are fun to watch.
There is volcanic underwater landscape to see and different types of water sports to do. Heaven for bikers and horse riders with many routes alongside beautiful countryside and the desert for a unique and exciting camel riding experience. While different large sized theme parks with natural collections, marine life and animals & birds await you, four mile long Atlantida Tunnel dazzles you.
Concerts, discos, night life, shopping, plenty of pubs & bars serve you local Canarian delicacies as well as international cuisines.

Tell me, who would not want to visit the place ?
