Weekend trip to a Jungle


What would u call this
# U need to pack all u r food & water
# U will be escorted by a gun men all along the route
# there will be crocodiles in the water so swimming not allowed
# u r not supposed to go alone in the forest


Oh yes this is want an adventurous holiday is all about. Yep last weekend went up to the Kabani Jungle lodges & Resort and had a gr8 time.


Though this was a last minute plan still we managed to have a wonderful time. Thanks to Indu for arranging this. Friday evening we go & buy our groceries and arrange for the transportation etc. So we are all are set to leave at 6am on saturday. Here the van comes late no problem we still manage to reach Nagarahole by the afternoon. We unload the baggage and we are set to hit the Kabini river. There we see the beautiful river and there were waves like beach, so much is the impact of the wind.

Then after a visit to the tree house and other things we head back to the resort for our lunch. Oh want a bliss it is to get such a wonderful food. Then after a little rest we go an boat trip on the Kabini river cruise and watch a lot of wild animals. Then back to the resort with an exciting jeep safari, thinking we could spot some tiger or some wild animal. We were not disappointed we spotted a wild buffalos. The night was really wonderful.
On Sunday at the crack of dawn we went for the safari again hoping to spot some tiger. Then we went deep into the forest and had an elephant safari. First time on an elephant safari…. I really like it a lot. Then again went on an safari and spotted some wild animals. In all the trip was good with the sightings of sambhar, spotted deer, elephant, wild boar, wild buffalo, peacock, peahen & a lot of birds.
