Water Water Everywhere...


When ever I think about our trip to Sai Vishram Beach Resort, Baindur near Mangalore... all I can say in words are """"WOW"""".

Man, the place is damn cool. I donno how to say about my 2days there... awesome it was. First time in my life I plunged into the Arabian Sea. During those water sports I shouted n screamed like anything.. too restless.. felt like going in the middle of the sea n swim.. (yes I did later, but with a life jacket)

We left Bangalore on 7th n reached Baindur the next morning.

I could hear the sound of the sea, couldn’t wait to see it.. went to it n had breakfast a bit late. First it was a banana ride.. I dared to sit at the front.. but later repented, coz I cudn't c anything coz of the salty water splashing all over my face, till the end of the ride, I had to keep my eyes closed or giving my hands the work of a wiper.. but still managed to enjoy the ride.. surprise was when the driver took a left suddenly to end the ride… and made all the ppl on the banana boat fall into the water.. yuck .. the water was too salty. I had tried to do the impossible kind of act i:e holding the rope so tight as to not to fall into water.. but finally fell into it when the ride ended..herez the pic, me at the front.

Hahaha.. I think whenever I plunged into the water.. I ended up drinking the salty water.. not only by mouth, but thro nose also.. but still enjoyed every second of it.. c c I can c myself a biggg smile over my face as I m writing this.. After this we were into water for nearly an hour.. enjoying the waves coming n hitting, me getting into water n water getting into my nose again n again, think I drank nearly half a liter of salty water thro my nose alone .. I tried to do some swimming stunts(I donno swimming). Next we thot of having our breakfast. Believe me, all the meals served in that resort was so very tasty.

After this, as usual, again jumping into water. My mom-in-law had warned me pyaar se not to get into water like I got into air (parasailing) in Goa, but who cares such instructions when one wants n loves thrills n adventures. But for her sake I din do the rock climbing, even hubby was not happy about giving a thot of climbing, coz he felt i may get strained. (Ranjit shud had been ther.. we wud had climbed the rock for a change instead of the trees.. hehhee... ). I can't wait to show the snaps to my mom-in-law. I sacrificed the wish of climbing the rock. Next again the tasty lunch.. then relaxed on the beach… watching ppl enjoying. Took a lott of pics of the sunset.

There were these 3 dogs called Fudge, Cesar and Boozo(very very lazy one). very lively dogs.. will run to u, wil play with u in the water.. get ready to take snaps with u.. I simply loved them. When I was taking hubby's snap, one of these dogs Cesar(Gerat Dane) ran and stood just beside him ready to be shot... how sweet of it. Then at that night there was

camp fire/ fire camp (whatever). Everybody danced.. except a few ones.. includes me too..:-(.. wat to do, I love dancing but can't.. The whole day I was with all smiles :-))))

Moons danced with them.. he never leaves such chances.. :-)

NEXT DAY... the much awaited day the previous day...

Love to c sunrises, but Arabian sea can only show sunsets..

Got up, full prepared again to hold my nose n fall in water.. whoopeeee.... water again!!!!!! was all I cud think of.

Ppl there took some of us in a motor boat to a point 3-4 kms away from the beach n told us to be in the boat or in the water for sometime. Moons took off his life jacket n plunged into water, coz he din feel he had the touch of that water while swimming earlier. Later on he got into the boat since the guard din let him swim without life jacket.

I was a bit afraid as to how to get into water.. shud I jump, or shud I sit at the edge n then slowly get down using the mini ladder?? 'no...', I thot, I shud remember this thro out my life … n suddenly found myself holding my nose n jumping in the standing position,, I went somewhere 3-4 feet below the water level I think.. then wat?? as usual, drank some more water thro nose n mouth.. n saying yuck.. simultaneously complaining to my hubby abt the water. A biggg smile was all he cud give. I just kept my hands n legs moving, trying to swim n change my place.. but I think the small waves pushed me away from the boat.. the more I struggled to move towards the boat the more far I went, or was the boat moving coz of the water?? questions n questions n panic as well. ‘What if there are shark near me.. wat if they pull or bite my legs’,... was getting a bit afraid. Hubby got the slightest hint on my face n jumped into water n took me to the boat.. 'haan.. this was something in life', I said... but he din say anything to me for me getting into water when I din know to swim... I love him... muuaaaahhhh... my sweet stubborn life partner.

Later got refreshed, had food n got back to our tent.. I hate to be in the sun when it’s too humid.

Time for water again!!!! I rode Yamaha 700 Horse Power Jet scooter.

Found a bit diffi in the beginning, then later on was riding like as if after a moment I wil start flying the scooter in the air... luckily the guard behind me didn’t insist me to ride slow. I cud c my husband's worried face frm far. Later on he too rode the bike.. n had a great time there.

Believe me frnds, this place is worth visiting n being there. U will absolutely have no complaints at all. Service was more than we expected, food was too too good. Only thing I could blame was the humid climate.. tats natural in such areas.

Everything was going on too good until he said to pack our bags.

I could hear me telling to him....

“is it really necessary to go back to Bangalore??”
