Maharashtra's Heaven ----> Mahabaleswar

Hi All,i am back again, well this time wil not bore u guys much.... as it all started when we(Yuva group that we used to call in our college) got irriteted with our busy scheduled.I sugested to my friend lets hang out somewhere , in the end Mahabaleshwar is finalised. I was very excited as i going there for the first time.............its been decided to leave pune early in the morning at 7:00 am so that we will reach there at 12:00 . Plan was to make a stay there on saturday , wake up early in tme morning and leave for Pratapgarh.As per plan Prashant, sachin came to our flat on friday night, we were awake almost 3:00 Am chatiing about college topics, then reluctantaly went to sleep as have to wake up early.But as you can understand that is not possible with all this and in the end we wake up at 6:30 and with some magic(you can say we got the geenee) manage to leave saikunj (our society name) at sharp 7:40. Fill the petrol tanks of our 3 bikes (opps Prashant didint fill the petrol). and with the NH4 we head towards the Mahabaleshwar.

The trip was full of life... i was on the bike with Sangram... and was gigling every seconds...Now those who know his nature , will not ask why...

One thing was better , as i was on teh back i dont have to answer his iteresting (Read irritating) questions.... :)

we stoped at the Surur(really remembered Aap Ka surur .. Himesh was in full form that time).

done the brealfast .. took a bot longer .. some beauiful faces made us appretiate their beauty by staying a bit longer... .. sachin Realised ye sab moh maya hai.. and moved away . finally everyone gave up (relunctatly though).. we moved towards the pachgani

When we left we had a clear goal in mind as we have to stay in mahabaleshwar .. but as we havent got the MTDC guest house(Like always we waked bit late to make the accomodation arrengements) .. and some good frieds advised us that we will not the accomodation on weekend.. so we tried to get the accomodation in pachgani only..

we stopeed at on eGuest House(Frankly speaking looking like alomost the ramsay brothers Bhoot Bangala). I along with Manik went there , made some negotiations(In whichwe both are pretty bad.. failed miserely here too). Booked two rooms .. and made a promise that we will come back at night from Mahabalshwar....

after that stopped at some garden on the way of the Mahabalwshwar ... relaxed ourselves , by doing some eye exercise.. bird watching u know... sachyaa super charged at that time.. still is even after marriage(wrting with extrame threat ) ..

ate icecreams .. done some photography .. , Mak and Pashyaaa tried hard to capture un-Identified objects , in the corner frame with our photo....

Uh... forgot to mention .. i guess Vinya.. destroyed one goggle on the way..

Finally get down to the Mahabaleshwar... booked one hotel, whose owner was one lady..sitting prettily in the reception area... Well we didn't need any furthur motivation to book the room in this hotel... and moreover the rate(of Hotel room off course) was reasonable ...(and ieven if rate was higher, we were not in a position to reject the lucrative package ).

After getting in hotel room , we rest ourselves(on each others bodies.. we are friends.. nevertheless , it happens).

After getting up , we went for lunch .. at 4 pm . Nobody was hungry(Even i will eat one roti only(quoted by sangram)) , we wanted something lite... ate a little... sangram ate 4,5 roties, along with Bhakari i guess.. and little rice served 4 times. (Omitting the scene we created in the Hotel )

After that we stared to admire the beauty of mahabaleshwar (nature beauty i am talking about). we visited some points.. and finally went to the Sunset points.... Huge mob was gathered there , we seen one of teh mesmerising sunset of life.. and made a life long plan of coming here when we get retired to enjoy the same holiday(Not with our wifes ... we are not insane )

after wandering in the mahabaleshwar market , for some time.. done the dinner (after searching some 15 hotels end up in messy hotel).. whose choice is it mine ? i dont know ....

after dinner , we get back to rooms .. .. get back to sleep , as we have to wake up early and have to go to the Pratapgarh......

we wake up at the 5:30 Am.... dont know who go for bath first... when he came back .. he was freezed ... Hotel owner promised us that we are having Hot water in room... now we are getting serverd with water havgn temp. of 10 oC

we done our bath... we decided to protest .. while checking out.. , we paid our bills and left(Protest ? with lady (having pretty face) ?Never heard of that ... we treat woman with equality ? ) .

while crossing the zig-zag roads of the pratapgarh.. we were blessed with the beauty of the Mahabalwshwar .. (we are no less than Uti,or manali)

.. explored the paratapgarh... , we may have differences in Shivaji history......

But we are well on agreement on pone fact that the girl sitting in front of us.. was indeed one of the most beautiful girl we have ever seen...

rest of the journey we completed by driving our bikes besides that girls car....

Finally came back to pune at 5 pm ......

was indeed the most memorable moments of my life.........................

will come back with post on our Bhimashankar trip in next post...
