some thoughts down the memory lane


This is one of most beautiful routes i've driven through... a really thrilling experience to climb up the winding roads up the Ponmudi hills, Trivandrum... add to that a li'l fog and its a dream drive... there are a lot of beautiful spots on the way up to stop by and enjoy, but when you finally reached the top, it was not as interesting as it was on the way, but still it was good... The trip was planned and executed through a weekend...we thought about it one saturday morning, started off that afternoon, reached ponmudi just before sunset, stayed in a hotel there during the night, started our journey back next day, stopping at every good spot we saw and finally reached back hostel by sunday evening... 15 of us went to ponmudi... me, unni, gito, shinu, jose, pc, suneesh, albert, aijin, eldho, rahul, thoppu, davis, arun b and joseph... take it from me, you'll never know how time went by when you're there with friends... actually this drive inspired me to get the url for this blog: scenicdrives... of course, it was a last resort when everything else i thought about was already registered to someone else :( ... but still i finally got something thats not yet registered and i've made by blog running...

The beginning

Its been a long while since i've been thinking of putting up a blog... i think right from the time of last FIFA World Cup and here it is... i've created my blog at last!!! on the inaugural day of the ICC World Cup... there is only a small problem... donno what to write here... well... saw the opening race of Moto GP yesterday... a fascinating race from green lights to chequered flag... looks like Casey Stoner might prove to be worth watching this season... his Ducati clearly outpaced Rossi's Yamaha in the straight stretches... and F1 is all set to begin in a week's time... so i'm going to be busy watching these... no interesting thoughts crossing my mind now that i am ready to write... will continue later when something comes up...
