Sunday Funday 5-Karkala














17 February 2008, Sunday
Well as it went, I again had another Sunday to spare without anywhere to go...so just buzzed my friend Mayank. Me, Mayank and Tanvi decided to go to Karkala...which is a small town about 45 minutes by bus from Manipal.
This time I was totally at the mercy of these two who, unlike what they claimed, had seriously forgotten their way around that place (even though they have been there once!). We had to go to some famous lake but ended up someplace which was a pond full of algae and what not....anyway we finally reached the Gommateshwara statue on the top of this hill...from where we trekked our way through wild underbrush and uneven terrain...and finaly reached the lake...though we moved on real soon from there too....again through wilderness...
Well then we just hung around for a bit and then went back coz it was gettin too hot. but in all a fun experience!
