We took an unplanned trip to mysore just before kick starting new year. With all the ladies pepped up to have some fun time along with jiju and two kids I really thought it would be one happy ending to 2019. Turned out that we were in for a surprise.
Ranagantittu was soaring with people waiting for a boat ride to the islands that were nesting places to birds. So we wandered a little and walked out.
On our way to KRS Dam, the driver told us we would take 10 minutes from where we started. But the vehicles refused to move even an inch. After waiting in the car for atleast two hours in the jam, we gave up and took a you turn.
I called the person who had assured we would get our rooms ready when we reached. First call, he asked me to call back, 2nd call he dint pick, 3rd call he pretended to be very busy and asked me to call again and I understood we were to be roomless that night.
Co incidentally Sany's friend was back from Istanbul a week ago and agreed to catch up for dinner. When she met all of us, she was super happy and then we discussed about the issue at hand.
She tried to help us out but it seemed like mysore was overloaded with travellers for new year. So we self invited ourselves to her home. Though she was skeptical (because of the mess she thought would terrify us), she not only very warmly let us in, but made us feel at home in the city that seemed to have so harshly deserted us.
We were comfortable the moment we stepped in and after all of us settled for the day, we girls were doing what we loved -talk.
Sauji, holding a doctorate degree, working with 3 continents, visited 42 countries and innumerable memorable experiences was sharing some with us.
The Sudan episode was something out of this world. After listening to her, we realized how immensely fortunate all of us were and how easily we blame and disrespect things that we get.
The following morning, we visited the rail museum (which was under renovation) chamundeshwari temple (which we could not enter) and to see the lit up palace(which was not lit because a seer had passed away)
So all in all we did visit mysore and did see places but the thing that made our trip worthwhile and the person whose company kept us happy despite the disappointments, was Sauji.
She did to our trip what an inscence stick does to our home, what colour does to our wardrobe, what sunshine does to a gloomy day, what rasmalai does to a buffet spread.
Sauji, Thank you is just not enough but I really wish all your troubles be vanished and you get the best outcomes from all your efforts and encounter lesser fools.. (;
Also wish all of us get going for such unplanned trips and find our rasmalai along the journey, the taste of which our hearts savour for life...
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
CHEERS!
GOD BLESS!!
