One more sudden plan witnessed the most significant day out. It was Friday night around 10.45 pm,I was chatting with Srikanth on gtalk. We were revising our old trips,journey,fun etc…. ! Srik asked me why can’t we go again for such a long drive. Without second thought I started googling about few places around Bangalore. This time we planned to move east side of Bangalore a place called ANTARA GANGE. My black beauty was recently got serviced and was in full josh to explore the new place.
We contacted our adventurous teammates chilling Chaitra, Daring Deepa, and Striking Srikanth. Luckily deepa came online around 12 pm it was surprise that I never saw her online. She needed a break badly out of her office tension. She quickly responded positively as soon as we invited her for our unplanned fabulous trip J .by the time the plan got finalized it was around 1 am, took a small nap till 5 am,got up and started reminder calls for my team mates. I am really proud of my team, we were on time….on spot…!!!! Sriks friend Smiley baby Madhura joined us for the trip.
We headed towards the hoskote ,listening to ROJA songs on air,Chaitra and sriku started their usual business of pulling each other’s leg.its fun see them fighting for front seat :P lol…I was safe..!!! Though..!!! we stopped on highways for photo session where ever we find some good spots. Just after 30 mins after our jouney,Sriku started looking for nearby hotels….. !! We all remembered our last trip where we had our morning breakfast after 230 kms of journey. This time he was cautious….found road side Srinidhi sagar veg hotel. We had idly,wada ,sambar. Chaitra had her own sugar less tea and started her photography . She found one of the rare species on earth ,congrats Chaitra…. Guyzz… relax it was just a crow :P. Handling her during trip is so tedious job for us,as she will be out of this world. She will enjoy every minute of her journey. Whole heartedly we should appreciate her kind of attitude.

No one knows about the origin of the Gange and it is believed that the Gange is falling from head of Lord Shiva.
We witnessed many localities, visitors who came there, carried this holy water in many cans and bottles and they offer pooja for itWe could not believe that our destination was just 4 kms away….yup…we were in kolar,which is just 70 kms away from Bangalore.we entered the kolar city, asked few localities about the route to Antaraganage, A guy who made us our day by telling route in his own estyle
“ alli GEEREEN building idaaralla….. alli hogbitti….. right togandbitti(showing his hand towards left),……left hodadbidi….(showing his hand towards right)……seeda straight onde…. Roaduu…..”
We thanked him for his direction and started journey in our own direction.Very easy to Antara Gange,
A nice place to hang out with family and friends. one has to reach the temple on hill top through the steps and plane land…stretch of one km surrounded by tall NILGIRI trees. It’s Pleasant to walk hearing to different sounds of birds.Too many monkey’s around ,have to be bit careful if you carry any eatables.
We offered pooja and left for our next destination “Sri padaraja Brunadavana” mulbagilu….!!
