Sita Nadi retreat

After a long time we kind of.. got a weekend again. With Deepu's hospital schedule extending to 14hrs 7 days a week, we're now searching for time. Saturdays she has her night duty and so we find some time on Sundays. This weekend we returned back to the forest rest house in Hebri on the banks of Sita Nadi. As good as ever, but could'nt get on to rafting again. We thus decided to extend our drive uphill to Aagumbe. For those from Karnataka... needs no mention, but those who have'nt heard this name... it should, i can doubtlessly say rank among the top 5 sunset view points in the world. The sunset spot is directly raised from sea level to a height of 930 feet. Between sunset spot and sea (at a distance of 30 km), there are no obstacles and hence, one can have a spectacular view of the sunset from this spot. The best possible months for viewing sunset from Aagumbe is December to mid of April when the skies are clear. There afterwards, clouds will obstruct view, and now at peak monsoon you can understand what it must have been. The place was enveloped in a cloud and we cud hardly see the person standing beside. In any case Aagumbe can be enjoyed in the monsoon just for this cloud and rain. So we just stood next to a tiny waterfall for a pic
