Coorg Trip

Hellooo Friends,
So, last to last weekend we, few friends, suddenly decided to visit Coorg. One of our friend came to our house for few days and we started planning to do something in the weekend. It was my long awaited dream to go to Coorg, so mainly it was me who kept saying, let's go to Coorg :D . We had only one day to book cab, book hotel and all those stuffs. Finally we arranged everything and started our journey in the very early morning. We booked cab from saavari.com. There were few packages from where you can choose according to your requirement. We booked a innova for 6 peoples and it costed us some 8k bucks for some 527 km but we had traveled more than 527 km and we payed 11k in total. While going we took a small detour and we went to a temple, I have forgot its name :( . It is one of the oldest temple as said by our driver. So we stopped there, visited the temple and again started for Coorg. Bangalore to Coorg it is some 250 km and we reached there about 2pm. We all were very hungry, so the first thing we had there was nice lunch in a veg restaurant near Namdroling Monastery. Then we went for that Monastery which was really beautiful and really big. We clicked some photos of that place which I will share with you guys. Then we went for Nisargadhama forest which is basically an island, you need to cross a hanging bridge to get entry into that island. It was quite greenery all around, river was flowing. Water was not there in the river that much so may people were clicking photos standing on rocks inside the river. We all went down to reach the river, we were taking photos, suddenly 4 of us got crazy and started playing in water. It was a real fun while I was busy clicking photos as usual.  At the evening we came to our hotel which was ok ok type. Next day we went for the place named Talakaveri, origin of Cauvery river. It was kind of temple where one small hole was there which is believed as Cauvery river. There was a view point for which we were supposed to cross some 300 stairs which was not cup of my tea. I did not climb up ,others did and they told it was not worthy at all. This Talakalaveri place is in top of a hill and the path was really scenery but there were too much turns which made me feel nausea but thankfully I did not puke. But I don't know why may be for this reason only I was not feeling good for the rest of the trip. Then we went for Raja seat which was again a view point. Then our last destination was in kushalnagar for rafting. The river was calm so I decided that I will also go along with my friends as I had no plan for going for rafting previously. We all sat on a boat and one guy from their group came along us. We came middle of the river and it was really nice all around. Suddenly that guy started shouting saying snake! snake! We all started jumping here and there and one of our friend who actually knew what is going on ,  told us it nothing but a trick to make us jump into the water. Except me all jumped into the river, they all were floating since they had life jacket. So after spending some times there we came back to our car and started towards Bangalore.I have clicked so many photos and videos which I am gonna share with you guys.
