The planning started somewhere around 3 months back from the date of Anniversary. Out of 4-5 option we decided for Ooty. We booked the ticket and waited eagerly for the date of departure. But the day was miserable. It was around 3:00 PM when it started raining heavily in Bangalore. And you all know the traffic in Bangalore, that too after rain. It was raining continuously and we were stuck in the traffic. There was no way around other than praying God. And they say, God listen for those who calls him by heart. We reached on time.
We started around 10:30 PM from Bangalore. We wished each other on the bus itself. The next day morning when we opened our eyes, we could not see outside. The reason you know very well, it was too chilly outside and the window glasses were full of water droplets. Anyway, we reached early morning. Since the booking was all done, we went directly to the hotel. After refreshment, we had our favorite breakfast as Idly and Dosai. Don’t laugh. It’s the truth.
Being a tight schedule, we could not afford to spend time on sleeping. As soon as breakfast was over, we took the guide chart and planned for the start point as temple. They say, it’s a very old temple of Goddess Durga (Chamudeshwari) the Goddess of Power. We visited the place. After that we had some window shopping. Before we could plan out anything more, it started raining heavily and we were just stuck in the rain. Anyways, some how we managed to come back to hotel. We booked a table in Taj for dinner. We did mention the reason also. When we reached there, it was an awesome feeling. The table was all decorated with flowers and balloons. A beautifully decorated cake was lying in the middle with a firmly standing candle in the middle. We both cut the cake and wished each other again. We had some photographic session and lovely dinner.
The next day was really pleasant. Cold breeze with shining Sun making it very comfortable. That day we all went to Connoor, 35 kms from Ooty. The place is famous for tea gardens. Infact, Mumtaz the famous Hindi movie actress owns the most part of the tea garden. It was all green. I had never been to such a place before. So for me, it was like a heaven. We spent the whole day in side seeing.
Next day was for Filmi chakkar, which means the places where various movies has been shot. I never wanted to come out of that place but we had to cope up with time.
The 3rd day we were back to Bangalore with plenty of good memories and a wish the visit again in near future. I shared it with all my friend and it now you who I have been sharing “The Fond memory”.
