My Nainital + Ranikhet + Corbett Trip

After the hectic "nights" of exams and the overloaded studies (Not applicable to the people lyk me), we were all set for the second trip of our college life, this time 4 days trip to Nainital, Ranikhet, and The Corbett National Park (The Home of "KAAL" ;-) ). 30th Nov night 2300 hrs, i ws sittin in my hostel room, without my bag packed, when all the people goin to the trip were sittin in the ground waiting for the bus since 2130 hrs :P. Suddenly my cell sounded nd Nitin told me the bus ws about to come within the next 20 mins. I stopped my chattin, packed my laptop in next 5 mins, saw the clock it was 2305 hrs, i targeted that i would be packin my luggage nd would get myself ready in the next 15 mins i.e till 2320 hrs. I started it all @ that time for the trip, nd guess what, aftr lockin my room finally, when i asked the time to Kapoor, surprisingly i found i ws 2-3 mins b4. I came to ground 2330 hrs around. All my frens were waitin for me. As usual, i ws lookin awesm (accordin to the comments from others :P). I waited with my frens der for about half an hr for the bus, but no sign ws der for that for the comin one hrs also, and i guessed that at the time i reached the ground (u knw my sixth sense).Leavin all my "Tripmates" behind, i came to hostel with Kapoor and Anurag, and went to Anurag's room, i found my guitar there, started playing it, and as usual, forgot the trip and time. We had a long Jam session of about 40-45 mins that time. Suddenly my cell rang again nd this time, Nitin told that "Abe seriously Bus aane waali hai, Ab aaja". But i continued with my music nd guitar for the next 5-10 min. Then finally said bye to Kapoor and Anurag, It ws about 0100 hrs when i went bak to ground. And guess what, Just when i reached there, all the buses came :). One by one we went to the bus, Now lemme Introduce U with some of our "Busmates :P" (Jitne mujhe yad hain)

aage yad nahi :)

Bus ws filled with the students. It started, nd all the faces were filled with joy and excitement.Although this time, many of our frens din't join who went to Manali with us. I only had one target in my mind "just njoy to the fullest, logo ko miss to baad me bhi kiya jaa sakta hai ;)". It was late night 0200 around, when we started Antyakshari session in the bus. It surprisingly continued for the next 1 hr approximately. Only Myself and Nitin were still egergised to have some more of it, rest all semmed to be having their batteries down with due course of time. All den decided to have a short sleep in the bus. After nearly half an hr again, it was approx 0345-0400 morning, when our bus halted at a Line Hotel in the way. All the people suddenly dissapeared from the bus, I dint knw y, till the time i found a long queue near the bathroom :P. I went to the hotel to have a light meal, and had a cup of tea and toast butter there. Guess what, just like the previous trip, this time also, i forgot my money into my almirah, and had only Rs 100 for the whole trip. But no worries, itne acche dost ho to paise ki kya jaroort padhegi ;). After havin the light "nashta" with sakshi, me nd sakshi nd shreya had a short photosession at the petrol pump. The pics were just awesome, b'coz those pics now doesn't exist. Those were by mistake formatted by sakshi :). Khair, after 15 mins around, bus started its journey further. All slept like gadhe ghode bechkar so gaye ho. Next morning, all the buses halted at another line hotel, @ nearly 0730 morning. It ws the time to laugh seriously, when i saw a diff scene. The line of students at the tea stall was just one-fourth the line near girl's and boy's toilet :). Khair, i din't get the priviledge to get into the toilet's line. Thnx to "my nature" which dint call me @ the "critical time". I had a cup of tea again with Divyanshu Tripathi ji and Nitin, who jus came out of his "dukhi" nature through whole night. We had a awesome photosession there again with some magical and entertaining videos of us (Formatted Now). I asked my bus driver (Sardarji), how much time we would be taking to reach our resort in Nainital. He replied 2.5-3 hrs more. Bus started again. I slept at that time only. When i opened my eyes, i found our bus stopped and that place was all sorrounded by hills all o'er. We went to hotel and room Bookin ws another problem then. Khair i started waiting. But suddenly another problem came. Nitin got a "serious" fever. He was behavin as if "mirgi ke dore padhe ho" (i pull his leg till date also remembering that situation). He ws den given glucose water till he got well and we we den went to the room alloted to us. We were 3 at that time. Me, Nitin and Puneet. As soom as we reached the room, Puneet suddenly shouted happily, as if kya ho gaya ho. I reached there and found that the reason ws that The room alloted to TS ws just aftr PS :P. PS n TS were neighbours for the next 2 days. We Got ready in the next 1-2 hrs and went to the place bus ws standing to have a small trip to Nainital city nd Naini lake sorroundings. All the bus halted at a stand, from where we had a walking journey of nearly 2-3 kms on a downward sloped way to the Mall Road of Nainital, where the movie Koi Mil Gaya was shooted a bit. At the time we reached to Naini lake (Mall Road being from one end to other end of naini lake, on its shore), it ws nearly dark. But we decided to have a boating coz we knew our college team won't allow us for the boating in Naini Lake if they will catch us, or when next morning we would be here again. They heard from the local people that the lake was very deep. But what it was to do with us. we did our job without tellin to ny1. After that we started roaming on the Mall road, went to some shops there. All were searchin for smthin to buy for their relatives. I was jus walkin to get more of Nainital View coz i had, as already told, nly Rs 100 with me, which was now Rs 50 nly. Me and sakshi went to a restaurant to have a tomato soup there. It was delicious, muaaaahhh. I covered approx whole of Mall road and then it was the time to go back to our bus within the next 30 mins. We were not at all aware that the 2-3 km we covered downwards, would become upwards during the return :P. Khair as soon as me and sakshi reached upto the Naini lake boating section again, i remembered Ashutosh told me to go to "Naina Devi Mandir" on the shore of Naini lake and give Rs 21 there. I changed my way then n there for the Temple with Sakshi, went there nd stayed for 10-15 mins there. Couldn't get rid of my habit of exploring here also. I asked the preist if the temple was a "Shaktipeeth" or not. He replied yes. I asked then "Which part of Sati's body fell here". He told "eyes". It was the time i figured out y the temple was named "Naina devi". I then asked "which eye - left or right". He smiled nd replied "left 1". Then Amit, who was already in the temple with us, told me "yar jaldi pohonchna hai bus mein". Me and sakshi again had our shoes back into our legs n went to the bus. The way was, as told, sloped, but upwards. But what it had to do with us? Talkin to each other, we reached the bus finally. I slept as soon as bus started and got my senses back when we again reached the resort. Then we had our dinner together. All were feelin tired very much. Nitin and Anuj then went to shreya's and sakshi's room to play cards. I, being least interested in this game, went back to my room and started watching TV. After sometime, put the MP3 player of nitin in my ears and slept. Suddenly, i heard an odd voice from the MP3 and woke up as if koi bhoot ka sapna dekha hoon. Aftr i woke up, i realised that the voice was of Nitin, and MP3 was not the culprit :P. He was shouting at the hotel admisnistration. In other words "JYC + Hotel waalo ko gaaliyaan de raha tha". And in fact it was genuine. Can't explain here y coz it would take another 6 lines. Khair we started aleepin @ nearly 0230 night. It was vry cold outside but i, being already too hot, din't need more than a blanket. First time i woke up when i felt sm1 was knockin from our balcony side. She was a gal from the next room, with our common balcony. Till now m unable 2 figure out her. Khair, i slept again, and when i woke up, shreya came suddenly and gave us the news that bus was all ready to go and we had to go to bus in next 5 mins, otherwise it would go leaving us behind. and again guess what, i was in front of the bus in 10 mins. Just 5 mins late :P, and that too aftr getting ready properly after the "kowwa snaan". Hats off to my speed. Thnx to B. Tech life. Sab kuch sikha diya. We again went to The same stop we went previous day. And this time again we went straight away to Mall road on downward road. We hired a Cab that promised us to take us for all local sight seeing. It dropped us @ the lover's point. I njoyed that place the most coz i've got no beloved till now :). Have a look on the pic below :


All of us had a "COUPLE" of photographs there ;). After that, each of us hired horses for the further 4-5 kms journey and had loads of fun for the further 1 hr we spent on horses. It was awesome. I, myself was singin "ello ji sanam hum aa gaye" on the horse and captured a video of that.


Horses dropped us at a place from where we had to go nearly 1 km on legs to the place from where we could get the himalayan view. On the way we had loads of fun capturing images of each n every situation with us. Oh yeah ek baat to batana bhool hi gaya. All the images and videos we captured till previous day, was formatted by now by a small mistake. Khair no regrets coz this showed us the path to capture more exciting and lovely images further ;). We went to see the gr8 himalayas, had orange juices there, with a small photosession there also.


And then came to place from where we had to go to mall road directly on ropeway. Got the tickets aftr waiting nearly 45 mins. Then got 2 c some nice sights of Nainital from the Ropeway trolley.


Came down to Mall road and after walking and talkin with each other, we finally reached to our bus again. As soon as we reached there, we saw that some of the people were still to come. So we decided to go to Caves garden, nearby. And surprisingly, me and sakshi covered the whole caves garden in 15-20 mins and so it was our right to be happy for such an acheivement.


Then came 2 the bus. B4 goin to caves garden i got a pot of flowers while i was coming to the bus from a person in the way, free of cost. When i entered the bus, i got a trick to consume all the flowers. I gave one flower to each and every1 sittin in the bus. I dint get seat in the bus. It was already o'erloaded. I went into the cabin and sat beside the driver. Also plugged my fav MP3 player in my ears having 3 flowers left in my hands. Two of them i kept in front of lord shiva in front of me and the one i kept with me. We reached the Resort again and had the lunch there. After the lunch we were given the choice whether we wish to go to the caves garden or the lake for boating (Bhimtal). Caves garden, hum pehle hi jaa chuke the, and Bhimtal, we already njoyed boating in Naini Lake, which is twice as long as bhimtal, then y we would be doin boating again in Bhimtal :P. But we preferred to go to the bus for Bhimtal. We, like other people, dint go for boating, but went directly walkin and njoying some precious moments there. It was really nice that we did boating earlier in Naini lake without tellin to JYC people :P. After njoying there and taking a lot of pics. We again went to the bus and started our journey back to the resort. But in the way, aftr nearly 1 hr journey, bus again stopped, reason being it was no entry for heavy vehicles in the mall road b4 8. So bus stopped at one end of mall road at the shore of Naini lake and we were given choice either to sit in the bus for the next 40 mins or hum mall road pr khate peete, ghoomte tehelte next end pr pohonche, in the next 40 mins. After discussing a lot we preferred the second one. I was, again with sakshi tis time. We njoyed, had "bhutta", tea, and a couple of pics again and finally reached where we had to catch our bus. Buses came, I as usual slept again and.....In the resort i had a heavy dinner that day.


It was around 2100 hrs. Then I played TT and carromboard. After losing them :P, i went to have a soup. Got two of them and went back to my room. Then watched TV a little bit. Then had a gappe session with "PS n TS" of about half an hr. Then me and Puneet came back to our room. It was late 2330 hrs approx then. Nitin and Anuj, were, as usual, palying cards "there". Puneet slept then n there nly. I first packed my luggage, coz next morning we had to leave for Ranikhet and resort ko bye bye kehna tha (for the first time in my life i packed my luggage LONG before)...

RANIKHET + CORBETT

Morning 0630 hrs, 3rd of December, we all woke up and saw ourselves in mirror. We all were lookin as if kalapani ki saza kaatkar aaye ho hum sab. We really needed a nice getup. Took bath in the undoubted sequence - Nitin, me and then finally puneet. Got a cool getup, u'll find me really diff in Ranikhet and Corbett pics then what m lookin in Nainital Pics. Uss time main Insaan ban gaya tha waapas :). Thats my amazing charizma yar..bohot kam hi log samajh pate hain ise. Khair, the journey to Ranikhet began.


In the way, we got the priviledge to go to a temple. I remembered i came here at the time i had a Nainital n Ranikhet tour in the yr 1997. It ws not that mch changed. Looked the same as it was 11 yrs ago. i ate "raajma chawal" at the dhaba nearby, that time. This time i found the same dhaba there. It was nice when i matched the previous sceneries of that place with the current one. We snapped some good photographs there. C the temple behind me in this pic...


Since the begining of the trip, i was willing to get snapped with one of my fav gals, who was coincidently with us. I thought this's the nly place i can get snapped with her. I approached her directly this time and asked for a pic. Firstly she smiled, then refused smilingly, then told me, "abhi late ho rahe hain, Ranikhet me pakka khichwaa lungi tumhare sath". I said "Promise??????". She replied "yes". Na jaane is "yes" ne mere sharir me konsi sphoorti ka sanchaar kar diya. Huh. Bus started again. This time I dint sleep but preferred to recollect the memories of 1997 tour, watching outside the window, and my all tym fav, Mp3 in my ears. After nearly 1-1.5 hrs we reached another temple. I couldnt remember this temple, may be b'coz it was situated after the famous golf ground of Ranikhet, and at that time, we went only upto the golf ground. We went straight away to the temple, taking some nice snaps of each of us in the way. Then came back to the road. Me and Nitin, then felt something interesting at this interesting moment. Its popularly known as "toilet" :P. It ws interesting b'coz as soon as we went to the Bathroom situated nearby, the person guarding that told us "bas ab ladke andar nahi jayenge". He meant that the toilet was closed for boys. It ws now onwards named "girl's toilet". But In our india, girl's toilets r limited and boy's toilets r unlimited. And this ws the plus point for us ;). Aage all of u can imagine......After the nature's call, it ws the time to go to the golf ground, where there was an arrangement of lunch for all of us. We went to the golf ground walking slowly slowly. I remembered the time i previously came here. It was all green grass here at that time but now its all burnt grass here :(. It wasn't really havin that shine it had 11 yrs ago. But the company of frens pulled me out of those memories to the present one. Till the time our lunch was on its way, we had loads of fun there. Especially me and nitin. We had some awesome moments there. The only 1 fren we were missin ws haddo :P. And wont tell a lie, hum use gaaliyaan bhi de rahe the naa aane ke liye :). We spent some nice moments there, had some exciting pics. Have a look at one of them..


We covered whole of the ground running and walking. After a long wait, we were informed the food was here. We went there immediately, all were waiting in a line. As usual, i dint prefer to wait this time also, and had my lunch with Vaibhav, one of my frens of B7 batch, who already took his food by that time. After that we all came to the bus, which started nearly aftr 40 min. All the people in the bus slept as soon as it started. Only some of us, viz. myself, Rohan, Ankit, SaM etc., we saw the zig zag ways the bus was covered while we were goin for the corbett trip, our final destination of the trip. The way was so critical and some of them was even under construction, accha hi hua ki saare soye huye the, warna we would definitely have witnessed 4-5 more vomitings :P. After 5 hrs of hectic n non-stop journey, we finally reached to the resort in corbett. We all took our luggages. One plus point for us was that Puneet already booked our room n so we dint have to wait for bookin our room there. We jus took our bags and went to the room allotted to us. As soon as we entered the room, all of us were delighted to c the arrangement and the rooms we were given. All the exertions we felt till now, just got washed away in moments. The room, and the river flowing beside our room, other side of which was the home of the animals of corbett, the awesom location, and it was a real fun. We thought to go to the river and went there. The person guarding there told that tigers, elephants, and deers usually come on the other side of river to drink water in the morning generally, tigers being rear. It was the first time i realised that we've entered one of the national parks in india, the home of animals, the wildlife of India. Then we came back to our room, got dressed up for the DJ night, although we were not willing to dance, but "insaano" ke beech Vaanaradhiraaj bankar jaana accha nahi lagta naa ;). Aftr that we went to the dinner place directly where no 1 was there at that time, shayad kisiko jyada bhookh nahi lagi thi. B4 the dinner was ready, we did a lot of fun there :P. Made videos and took pics of us in ajeeb ajeeb poses and manner ;). Look at one of them..


Aftr that we had our dinner. Dinner was a bit heavy for me. Bhookh me pata hi nahi chalaa kitna khaa liya. After that me, nitin shreya and sakshi decided to have a look on another cottage, alloted to some of the students, coz no place was left in this one. As soon as we crossed the gate of resort and came to the road,it was all dark with complete silence and it was looking as if not a single person was in the 3 km radius of this place.After all of, huh...After walking just 10-20 mins on road, we dropped our plan to go to other resort and started coming back to out resort. On the way suddenly the cellphone of sakshi rang like a "hellphone". Nitin suddenly shouted "abeyyyyyyy......."(he got scared vry mch for a moment). We all then decided to really go to our resort as soon as possible, warna ho chuki hamari saari safari yehin ho jayegi. After that me, nitin, shreya, sakshi, umang, anuj, all went to shreya's room. All of them started playing cards, xcept me n sakshi. I was feelin a bit bored. So decided to go to the DJ dance party, and also decided to "Rate" each nd every girl out there on the scale of 5 (vello ko aur koi kaam to rehta nahi hai). I went to The dance party with Anuj. Joined the group of Rohan n all there, n rocked on !!. I started rating the gals as soon as i reached there :P. N u won't beleive it dint stop till the end. Although i do vry linient markin but den also only some of the gals managed to grab 4-4.5 marks out of 5 :). I dunno y after gettin committed, the shine on a gal's face gets washed away :P. Njoyed a tons. Then came back to my room, was feelin sleepy. Nd we were informed to getup early 0300 hrs in the morning for the first safari of other day in the corbett national park. Which starts from 0600 hrs morning to 0930 hrs morning only.
Next day, we woke up early 0330 approx and went to the bus by approx. 0400 hrs. All faces were excited to c the wildlife of india n the well known "Corbett". As soon as we reached there, we were told to grab one one cab each 7 of us. We just followed that and went to hire one. At that time, we were not even aware that what's goin to heppen with us, what we were goin to witness. As soon as we entered the main gate of Corbett, a checkpost came suddenly where i saw a borad. A tiger was drawn on it and a dialogue was written under that "Remember, it is my home, be disciplined, follow ur limits". All the cabs were given permission by the authority of corbett. Then suddenly a guide came and sat with the driver in the cab. We, all were standing behind. As soon as the cab started, we saw the ways, the trees, and for second or third time only in my lyf, i was witnessin a complete "forest". Have a look..


B4 this, i went to only one national park, i.e. Kanha National Park in Madhya Pradesh, where i got the priviledge to c the live hunting of a deer, by a Cheetah (Leopard). Firstly we saw only deers after covering certain distance there. I asked the guide, how many deers are estimated here. he replied "32000 around". But all of our college crew was only willing to c the "tiger". Guide told us that tiger was seen since the past three days consecutively, he also told "agar aapki kismat acchi huyi to aaj bhi dikh jayega, din din ki baat hai". During conversation we got to knw that no. of tigers now in corbett is nearly 162 around, and this is the time of the heating period of Most of the animals :). After this much of gossips, came another checkpoint. We were all told to do toilets n all nd have a little breakfast, those who wish. It was so cold there that all of our hands got screwed. No senses were left in the hands, but no regrets as it was the environment of Corbett ;). After having paneer pakoras there, we all went to our cab again and left for the main journey. In the way, our driver stopped at two places, showed us the footprints of tiger and told those were of previous day. Suddenly it came at a place where the guide found the footprints he dint c yesterday. He predicted that it is the footprint of that day only and told us the tiger has gone from that place 1-2 hrs ago. He, estimated the places where we could get the chance to c the tiger. He told the driver to move the cab to the riverside. We went there. It was a clean ground of about 2 sq km ahead where the cab was stopped. Our guide said suddenly "ssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh". It was all complete peace then. A small river was flowing in front of us. The guide told in a peaceful manner "The tiger would get distracted by the human voice and won't come in front. We asked "how could u predict the tiger is going to come here only". He replied "Jaade ka time hai, subah me shikaar karta hai hiran (deer) ka, aur uske baad dhoop ka maza lene khule maidan me aata hai". C the place where we were waiting..



After a silence of 10 mins and waiting there, we swiched to another place. Alas !! while we were on the way, suddenly the driver stopped, told "sssssshhhhhh" again and pointed us to an animal, who was going slowly through the forest trees and for 15-20 seconds, we witnessed the tiger, for the first tym, openly, without any cage. Our photographer sakshi, managed to get a pic of that tiger in this small time also...have a look..


All of a sudden, the tiget got dissapeared, we shouted "jaa raha hai.. jaa raha hai". The guide said us to keep quiet for the next half an hr at least. He discussed with the driver and directed the cab to another side of the small mountain o'er which the tiger went, coz there was another river and an open ground on the other side of that. We went there, and started waiting for the tiger to come. After a wait and silence of 10 mins, the guide told us to concentrate on a voice, and yeah it was again that tiger only, as if it was saying "I m Coming. Behave urself :P". But it was all messed up when another cab came there, and the voice of which distracted the tiger, and might be, the tiger changed his way and didn't come out of the bushes and forest. After waiting again there more than 15 mins, we decided to go back realising that our luck wrote tiger only once for us. But....truth is alwaz stranger than fiction. The next moments were goin to be unforgettable for us. while we were going back, Anuj suddenly shouted "wo dekho wo dekho". We all turned that side and yeah..it was tiger again, nd this time, just a few steps far from us. The guide sitting with us started making voice of "Sambhar", the fav dish of tiger to steal its attention towards us. Suddenly we found that tiger was coming to the ground, the road behind us. Again, this time also, a cab came with us and as soon as the tiger came on ground, although our "camerawoman" (sakshi) was already capturing the video since the time we saw it, the other cab started chasing the tiger with more than the avg speed a cab should have there. Our guide told that "kaafi risk rehta hai isme, the tiger can also attack". But this time, the tiger started running in front of cab, and we captured some interesting pics and videos of that. We saw the tiger till it again got disappeared in the bushes. This made us vry happy, the excitement that the past 4-5 mins gave to us was just amazing, can't be described in words. The guide sitting with us told "meri baat maane, shant rahe, isliye aapko tiger dekhne ko mila". We were feeling proud on our patience. All were then going back happily to the main gate of Corbett, frm where, we entered only with a hope and where i told my "cabmates", "Be +ve, kisiko dikhe ya naa dikhe, humein tiger jaroor dikhega. Ohh yeah !! 1 thing i forgot to mention. while we were returning back, our guide told that the animal we saw was not "Tiger", it was "Tigress". Hoti bhi kaise nahi, if savyasachi is with u, how can u xpect a "Tiger", it can only be a "Tigress" :P. When we all entered the bus again, and heard from others that no 1 saw the tiger even once, then we realised what we have acheived. not once, not twice, we saw the tiger thrice :P. Collecting those wonderful memories, i sat alone near the window in the bus, started singing one of my fav track "khulla aasmaan" in my own and after sometime we reached the resort again, where the breakfast was waiting for us. I had some of the stuffs only, had a cup of tea with SaM, then went to room where we had loads of fun talking amongst ourselves about the safari we had, and imagining vague situations in them, made exclusively by us ;). After some gossip sessions, it was the time to have lunch. Again i took my plate and joined Puneet and His "Gal friends" on the ground. Had a nice lunch, wo kehte hain naa "tabiyat se khaya". And then it was the time to have a cup of ice cream. While i was havin the Ice Cream with Nitin and vaibhav, I saw the gal who promised me for a photograph with her, In the "Mandir" while we halted on the way of Ranikhet . I asked nitin "yar bolun???". He told "Abe jaa..isse accha mouka nahi milega". I asked again "yar wo mana to nahi karegi??". He told me "abe tu bolkar dekh to. I have confidence in u". I went straight away to our Ma'am and requested "Ma'am pls aapne kaha tha ek pic ke liye. Now its time to follow ur promise". She started laughing and said "Tum kyun mere sath pic khichwani chahte ho???". I told "Ma'am i don't know, mujhe bas aapke sath pic ek chahiye". She stared me for 4-5 seconds, then told "yes..ok". After 2-3 extra pics, i managed to have a single pic with her. I was really happy after that, as if konsi mahabharat ki jung jeet liya houn. Then i went to the ground again where Me, Nitin and Vaibhav had a long session of hilarious talks. Haste haste bura haal ho gaya really. Then it was the time to go to bus again and start the journey back to college again. All were talkin about the trip and were sad, as it was the End of that. I on the other hand, was really feelin happy recollecting all the memories right from the first day of the trip. The bus started, Running running and stopped again at that line hotel, where i had a breakfast with sakshi at 0400 hrs morning while we were going to Nainital. The bus dropped us at the college at about 2315 hrs night. We directly went to our rooms. I entered my room, recollecting those precious times i spent these 5 days, just unlocked my almirah, put on my Lappy, logged on to gtalk, and started chatting with my friends, who didn't c me these 5 days. Everything stopped from where it was started, and co-incidently from the same time. Remember the time i was chatting with my friends and Nitin called me and told "bus ane wali hai 20 mins me, jaldi aaja". U'll feel as if i just took a break of "5 days"....oops "5 mins". :)
