When love affair with computer starts to feel like a boring
phenomenon, mind demands for a
refreshment. No tea or talk or walk can fullfill that desperation. So we
decided to visit Chunchi falls and Sangama/Mekedatu. Well, in this case Chunchi
falls was like a pickle during "Sangama" lunch.

| Bike ride Begins |
Bike ride started
officially from Banashankari at 8.30 AM. Well, what a combo - Yamaha FZ and TVS
Victor GL. Racing is impossible. It is just 82 KM from Banashankari. With
awesome driving skiils of Kerure and feel of going away from Bangalore, ride
sounded just perfect. Tatte Idli on the way with Coffee, was enough to drive
bikes and our souls. After crossing Kanakapura, 16kms before 'Sangama' , we took a left turn
to the Yeleguri village to reach Chunchi falls (Though sign board is not clear
enough). But entrance road looked like path to heaven. Lush green on both sides
was worth watching. Background can turn any ugly photo into a beautiful art.

| Path to Heaven |
We started walking towards Chunchi falls after parking the
vehicle. Afternoon sun was looking hot. Rock formations welcomed us to a
beautiful scenery, which looked like a foreign location. We took so many
photos, after all a bachelor guy's photo has some demand. Location was nothing
less compared to foreign location. Like a diamond crystal in Green pearl,
waterfall looked like an unreachable star.

Path was adventurous. All visitors just watched the falls
from far distance and went with satisfaction. But our crazy mind was not happy.
Well, after all, window shopping is not our destiny. So we decided to reach for
the diamond. Path was deadly. You need to hold your breath at times. Malli's determination,
Naveen's stories kept us alive. fear generating depth, Difficult paths tiny
width, sharp grass, slippery sand, rock formations were enough to challenge us.
But beauty of waterfalls, green paths, Inspiring butterflies - Well, more than
enough to motivate us.

Happiness kept increasing exponentially, as soon as we
approached Chunchi falls. Shining like a diamond in the presence of Sunshine. After this trip, Sangama looked like pickle in Chunchi lunch.
Well, life shines when there is someone to enlighten us from the top. Every
travel makes us feel alive, fall in love with life and kill sadness inside
heart. A place less than 100 KM away from Bangalore can take your breath away,
so stop waiting and start riding.
