Raigad & Dive Agar via Varandha

This was a random thought which we implemented very well by organising tour on 12'th & 13'th. The caption of the tour was "One is getting married so he wants to enjoy before is happily ever after,
1 is trying hard but no success yet, 2 Uncles are loosing their hair so they just need break from all this crappy daily routine, 1 is really depressed because of..'s wedding, so we have only 1 Hero i.e the entertainer". We started from Kothrud early morning , had some below average Nashta @ Tamhini & headed towards Raigad, picked the Bhel material @ Mangaon , had lots of apples before we started Hiking.
Our entertainer decided to go by Rope Way, I actually thought going up to but started Hiking only.
Last time we were here in April, Hot summer & Nude Hills ,



This time was superb,



everything was lusty green, some small waterfalls in between, we climbed the fort in 55 Minutes.As usual Vijay was far behind otherwise we would have took less time.
We had our lunch in BAJARPETH.

Then it started raining heavily, we were stuck in RajSadar for one & half hour.I wanted to go to Jagdishwar temple but couldn't, we all came down by Rope way.
This was fun, I was really scared when it took Off, We were in cloud for 5 minutes then at halfway clouds start disappearing & the view was exceptional.I was really happy that i had that ride(One of things from my wish-list is gone :)), We had tea @ beautiful place on Mubai-Goa highway. We were sitting on the edge of the river very close to a farm, Konkan rail across the Hill & some Hot Bhajjies @ our table.
We reached Dive Agar very late so missed our Sunset, Couldn't had a great dinner as our regular guy was not Taking orders that day so had a simple food.The place was superb though(Simple,Neat,Clean).
After dinner we went to beach, Sea was roaring like monster,You are on a out of network place , with your best friends (little kick on your brain) & a lonely night,I really hope their should be any dry season like these moments in my life.
Next day early morning we went on the beach & had all crazy stuff, Sun bath, Sand bath, Valley Ball,

Cricket. Next to our group I saw a family of 3 people enjoying together, Husband , wife & their small kiddo. that looked nice(After few years I'll be with my own family without my friends on vacation :().We had booked our lunch with Mr Todankar, because of their renovation, they had closed their food services which they started with our group & the food was ..... .Soul Curry(I had 3 bouls),Modaks(3 giant pieces) & some simple but tasty dishes.

Was totally fulfilled all expectations of this trip.While coming back we took a different path than regular, we came by Varandha & this was the Cherry on the Top for our trip.
The weather was amazing, Last year we were here in the beginning of Monsoon , this year we were at the time of end,




The best part was the condition of the road , seriously this was better that Tamhini.

We took a stop @ the same place where we did last year.To my surprise there was one guy dancing some cool steps in his own ZING, seriously I thought he is a professional dancer, some simple steps beautifully performed.Clouds were following us all the way till Bhor.

Dinner we took @ a Dhaba on Pune-Banglore Highway near to Pune.This was really good time spent with my friends.
