Forest - Here we come!

After a long time, we are planning a trip to forest. After much tussle, as i type this, our waiting list tickets suddenly got confirmed, thanks to indian railways.

The purpose of this trip is to stay in the middle of the forest for a weekend. Not a luxury resort this time .We assume we are going to stay in a  10x10 room in a reserved forest somewhere in Sathyamangalam, home of our famous bandit Veerapan.The requirement for this trip was no cell phone towers, no electricity,no toilets and only self-cooked food.A local tribe or ranger is supposed to guide us.



Since food won't be available, we are taking huge stocks of Ready-to-eat types.What we are going to do there? We don't know.We think we are going to take a plunge in the River Bhavani. We think we will trek to some small hill out there. 


Plan: Overnight train to Coimbatore on friday evening - Reach forest by mid of day - Over night stay - Start by Sunday evening train - Reach Namma Chennai on Monday 

Wait till Monday for a travelogue.
