Reached Trisangu Heaven resort by 3:30 PM. We missed lunch ... On the way we stopped at a bakery and had some snacks. We relaxed for sometime and went on a small trek to trisangu hills very next to the resort in the evening. You know what by this time I got Airtel signal.. Called my home and also her home. They were all very happy.


The view from the hill was amazing .. even the resort looked great from hills. It was chilling cold there... Sowmya was shivering ..

We both enjoyed a lot in the beach... till we came to know sea has taken Sowmya's sliipers off.. She was upset .. It was hot summer .. she could not walk bare foot.. and was reluctant to wear mine.. Then asked Mohan (our driver) to goto to nearest footwear shop and bought a new one.

Boarded the train at 3:00 pm and the journey was cool... and reached our pretty lovely bangalore by 4:15 AM on the Friday morning.. :)

Thats all folks ...
