I guess one just needs an excuse to take the car out of the city and into the wild.. With mum visiting had planned a trip to Masinagudi with her. My second trip in two weeks :) Good music, mostly good roads and lovely cloudy morning , we hit the tarmac. We drove throw some lovely stretches of small towns, green fields and water bodies and then the forests of bandipur and mudumalai and reached our destination, Masinagudi for lunch . Had a wonderful two days there , meeting some real experts in the field of wildlife and charming hosts, experimenting with my new camera and just soaking up the green and peaceful surroundings.
