After this many years it still gives the same joyful feeling as if we were at the grasslands singing, posing for pics, giving Birthday Bumps to poor fellas and the scary exit. One of a kind.

Some of my friends on a trek in Palani recently remarked that there legs were covered by so many leeches that Peter had suggested that instead of trying to take them off--run till they drop off because if you try to take them off, more will climb up...I saw their legs--with those marks..Bhavanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00799522192219059459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740777121261184425.post-29631918605722825342009-11-19T23:12:55.369+05:302009-11-19T23:12:55.369+05:30Brilliant writing skills.
