It’s 5.30 in the morning and my phones ringing.. Oh shit I had to reach a friends place by 5.15… I quickly brushed my teeth and there I was driving my car off to d frnds place where I had to pick up some more friends, U must be wondering what am I doing at 5.30 in the morning with friends instead of being in bed?? Yes it was the day we had planned to go to Sinhagad !!
Ah! It was wonderful, 5.45 in the morning , 5 of us in the car ,its still dark outside and we are enjoying .. We soon reached Khadakwasla. It just looked awesome in the dark, the waters stand still, and no noise at all. We parked our car nearby waiting for another frnd’s car to reach and clicked a few snaps!!
Then off we were to Sinhagad. We started climbing at around 6.30 . And to our surprise even before we were halfway we had started seeing people who were on their way back!!!
It was a lot of fun climbing. I was the slowest of them all. By the way we were 7 of us. The sun rise was beautiful, the sky was filled up with all shades of orange and yellow and blue. It took us around 1 and a half our to reach the top. It relinquished our memories od the deo tibba trek. “C’mon ppl, keep moving ,keep moving ppl!!!”
Finally we were there at the top. Nicely all of us a glass of lemonade to quench our thirst. It was chilling cold up there and to show our extra smartness and boldness Rajasa and I did not carry a jacket or rather forgot to carry one. Then came the sinhagad special, The Kanda bhajis..Hmmm they were served hot, crispy and yummy…with spicy onion chutney accompanied by jay’s special coffee bean cocolates and Maithili’s Chocolates..
Then we started climbing further up, on the fort to visit the Dev taaki, Wind point and Tanaji’s Samadhi. Out of the three Wind point was the best. We had a nice photo session out there. Lots os fun. And how can I forget we had meeth mirchi lawlela awla also. And I don know whether I should mention this here, but hee hee because it has to sound like my post, U know what they charged us Rs 5/person for going to the washroom also!!!!
Then we had some Chaas and matka dahi, and butta and off we were on our way back.
Coming down took us more time than expected. We took around an hour to come down because we chose short cuts :-p. I know that sounds stupid , but we did. The shortcuts were not very easy. I had a nice ghasar gundi twice while coming down. But it was fun.
Finally afer reaching down we enjoyed some litchi juice . Thanks to rajasa. And there we were dead tired.
But it was a wonderful trek.
We do plan many of these since it’s the last sem of college and hope to take along many more people. So see you soon guys….
. Also women are multitaskers. She can talk on the phone and watch tv and do something else as well and do all the work properly knowing what is to be done where exactly. While men can take only one task at a time. So all the girls when your friend (guys) say they are listening while doing something else they are just pretending.. So watch out!!
