Helping dears

The Qualis which took us to Kodaikanal

I enjoyed my Kodaikanal trip very happily, because of these helpful dears. I have to tell about them who are all have helped me in this trip. My dad, who was helping me form climb down and up from the car, lifting me to some places were the wheel chare can’t go, and stop the car in between while traveling and helped me on pass urine and took the foods form the hotel and give me in the car. Next my brother who lift me form the car to the room which is 10 steps form the ground, pushing the Wheel Chare, in some places my bro, the car driver and my uncle carry me with the WC. The Diver (his name was Raja) was very kind person, beating some jokes and makes us laugh. He drew the vehicle slowly in the curves to avoid me falling form the seat, he was a good company for me. And he become a good friend for me, he was an interesting person. He was telling me that he was working hard for day and night, for his children’s education; I was wonder when he said his elder son was Studying in St.Jonse school (one of the biggest school in chennai), and his wife was working domestic works in the near houses. On the day when we return to chennai, he was very happy, because to see his children’s and said he is going to have dinner with their family after 5days. I also brought his cell no and talked to him last week, and he was happy to receive my call, and told me that he was telling about me to his children’s and they like to see me. Hope to see them.

My Uncle was helped to take me to new places, which I haven’t seen; they came to kodaikanal mainly to give me company (to share with me). Before we visit the places, he will first check if can I go there or not. My happy lies on everyone’s hard work and I should thank them who was helping me, and hide there stress to avoid the sadness on my face.

(Friends, my computer is giving trouble again, I don’t know when it will work well and when it will give problem, so whenever it works I will post and read yours, otherwise…. I should wait till my service bro to check my computer.)

Space Girl

She went where only one man had ever been before and he was Russian too! Valentina Tereshkova became the first women to go into space on June 16th in1963 (today). She blasted off in a Vostok 6 spacecraft and made 48 orbit of Earth, spending three days in space.

Valentina was trained in parachute jumping and this was the main reason she was chosen form among more than 400 applicants for the mission. After her return form space, she married another cosmonaut. Andrian Nikolayev. Their daughter Elena interested scientists as the first child born to parents who were both space travelers. It was only 19 year later in 1982 that a second woman was sent into space. She was another Russian. Svetiana Savytskaya.

Kodai celebration (Theakkadi)

Natural views form Theni to Kambam route

Our travel towards Theakkadi was awesome. Two side of sky touching mountains with clouds spreading on it (they are west continue hills) and green fields was really cool for my eyes. I was telling to my dad, if we live, we should live here (in the surrounding of Theni or Kambam (Theni is a district in Tamil Nadu). I don’t know how to explain what I feel, it was a dream come true to travel on these place, where I saw in movies and craved.

Theakkadi Lake

I have crossed the bored and went to Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, but first time I went inside the Kerala, I was sad when we were coming down form the hill, but when they said the Theakkadi was in the top of hill, the happiness come again. The Theakkadi was a big lake, which leads to Peariyar Dam. It was 4.00pm when we reach Theakkdi, the climate was very cool, we are the last passengers to buy ticket, if we come 5 minutes late we have missed the boat. It was a doubly deck boat, I went near the water in the wheel chare and shifted to chare. My uncle, brother and our car driver carry me inside the Boat. The boat ride was continued for an hour, the boat went slowly, so ever one can watch the animal on the shore.
I expect to see Elephants and tigers, but saw only dears, one Forest Bull, and a crocodile lying on the shore. The travel on the Boat was unforgettable; the broken tress in the middle of water, the boat, and the lake, which was surrounded by beautiful mountains, chili drizzle ect…. We expect that the boat will go near the Dam, but they have turned. We were searching for animal in the Binocular, suddenly every one was shouting elephant elephant, when we go near only realized they are forest officer wearing black raincoat, it was a big joke. After finishing the boat ride and arrived Kumli (town near Thekkadi) the heavy rain started, my mom went to buy pepper in the near shops, the pepper will be very pure in this place and we had a tasty coffee there in the rain, drinking some think hot in the rain is Wow!

Kumbakkarai Water Falls in Peariyakum

After we come down form the hill, we met our relative who was a break inspected in the boarder of the Kerala, he booked a room for us in Kambam (one of the boarder town in Tamil nadu) and we stayed there. Next day we come to know after we come down form the hills there was heavy wind and trees broke down and blocked the traffic, good time we retuned soon, or else we have been caught in the middle of the forest. On Tuesday 30 on our way to chennai, we went to Kumbakkarai Water Falls in Peariyakum, the water come to this falls is form Kodaikanal, the water has medical conduct, my cousins enjoyed taking bath in the falls. This was the last place we visit and our vehicle headed to Chennai while returning our driver drew the car very fast and arrived our home at 9.30pm.

Cool Razick

Confusion on the title… Razick is my long yahoo chat Friend, who I meet today. He is a very cool guy, that why I wrote cool razick. I catch him in chat some months (10 months) back, in our first chat itself we become good friend. He was from Thirunelveli district (Sivelapari), studying B.com 3rd year, we have talked many times through Phone and dint saw each other, it was really a surprise meet. First he come to my house and asked where is phone booth, to call me, to find, in which block I am living, after some time he calls me and said I am in your flat and asked the door number. Very funny, we laughed each other when he enters our house. He notes my old house address form the greetings of New Year, and went there and found the new address and came.

Me and Razick

I dint feel like meeting for the first time, its like our friendship was continuing for long years. After talking for some time, I feel that his thoughts and my thoughts are same with little change. He was very proud about his family esp. her mom, he never hide any thing form her mom, I like this. He has an aim that he should not give trouble for his parents and wants to finish his studies soon and stand on his own leg (a job) to control his family stress. His father was working in Dubai and his bro is doing ITI and sis is learning some computer course, in his dad’s low salary they have to study and to control the family. He was also doing part time job, months back for his expenditure, to avoid the family money problem. He like to visit many countries, on his own money, he has hopes to become a big level in his life and expecting to achieve some thing He don’t know anything about Computer, just know to chat. So we saw some programs in computer and after seeing my blog, he likes to start a blog and I helped him how to post and edit the settings (click his blog Raz World). He was a good writer too, wrote 2 novels and some Tamil poems (like songs), he brought it for me, its very beautiful, hope he will write his novels and songs soon in his blog. I wish, like his good mind, his life should also be bright. He was calling my dad appa and mother as amma, what a nice friend I got!!!

Kodai celebration (Barijam)

Barijam

On Sunday 28th went to Barijam, it was a restricted area, a thick Forest. We brought permission form the Forest department and went, it was a unpolluted place. There was a beautiful fresh lake, in evening and morning forest animals will come and drink water, but the time we went, their was no animals, the lake was look like, the lake which comes in Hollywood movie Lake palace. We planed to spend at least 2 hours their, but the rain come and spoiled. The way to Barijam was cool, two sides trees cover the road, it was like going inside a cave, in some places the mist cover the roads and vehicle use lights.

My grandpa holding Arvinds hand and cutting the cake

After return from Barijam we cut cake and celebrate our cousin Aravinds birthday in our room, he was happy to celebrate his birthday in Kodaikanal. The place we were stayed was very down, the vehicle was very hard to climb, and easy to go down. The neighbor house was a beautiful bungalow, with lots of flowers and plum trees, our cousin go and secretly pick the plums and eat. There are lots of houses built on the hill’s slope near to our house, it has long steps to climb, we can’t imagine if a mudslide comes, what will they do. They are living in risk; I was wonder to see these. I saw in the binocular, there were 3 small boys playing cards in sitting on the slopes. Some kids play cricket on the in that place, I think what will they do if they shot a sixes, but were ever ball goes that pick them in minutes.

This house is next to our room where we stayed, and the houses, which are, build on the slopes.

Actually our plan was to stay 3 days in Kodaikanal, but my grandma and grandpa can’t bear (stand) the cold, so we change our plan and decided to visit Theakkadi on Monday. My mind is not read to leave the drizzle and cool Kodai; I am in a sad mood in morning, and tried enjoying the last movement on the hills and the chill.
