On Board Shopping Facility at Shatabdi

     It will be much boring for any person who were traveling in the train for a longer distance . Now the government came up with an initiative to introduce shopping facility in the long distance traveling distance. As part of this, they were going to implement this in Shatabdi Express in India.
    Probably they were in plan to come up with a space in the train to shop items like chocolates, Hand bags and other few items to attract travelers to increase the rail tourism and entertain the travelers in better way.
  This facility will be soon come up in all Shatabdi trains running across the country.

Sangita Travels Review

Last weekend we have been to pondicherry to attend one of our friend/colleague's sister marriage. On the return, he booked ticket for us to Bangalore in sangita travels. The bus starting time is 10.30 PM. We collected our passed by 10.15 PM. We got shocked when we saw the bus, we need to travel. They said its a Volvo bus, bit it looked like a normal bus, which has been painted . Adding to our frustration, the bus tyre is punctured. They arranged a new bus, it was also looking like a old one. The ac was not good.
   The Bus started @ 11.00 PM. At 2.00 am, we reached nearby thirvanamali, the bus engine stopped. The driver repaired it for 15 mins  and we went some 40 kms, the bus engine stopped again. Now the driver couldn't able to fix it. But we though they will fix it again, so we went in and slept..
  When we woke up at 06.30 a.m, we got shocked that the bus is in the same place and surprisingly we have seen the driver is also sleeping. We work up him and he said they were waiting for  a mechanic. The mechanic came and he started repairing. I took my android mobile and opened Google maps. I got frustrated , when i saw we were 175 kms away from Bangalore. Finally the bus started, and after 20 kms the bus stopped again.
  Finally the management declared they will fund the entire money. But what to do only with the money. Many of us who's the bus are office goer's  and its in the Monday morning and the time is 08.30 a.m and we were 150 kms away from Bangalore..
 This is one of the worst  planned journey i have made .

Whom to Blame ?

  •  The Driver
    • Whether he didn't check the condition of the bus , before the journey
  • Travels
    • They can arrange a spare bus @ start of journey, but they cant arrange it when the bus got repair in the mid of journey.

Trip to Shivana Samudara

 "Journey will make us feel good always and memorable".This Trip started with Cloudy skies above and cold water below. It Means the water in the waterfall is very cold and the sky is cloudy and the weather is rainy. :) 
This is my first long ride in my bike..

Distance :From Bangalore : 150 kms

Route: Bangalore - Kanakapura - MallaVali -     Shivana Samudara 

Special : Water Falls

We started the trip from Bangalore @ Dec 31st Morning 6.30 am. The Sky was very clear at the time, but when we were riding the bike in Nice Road, it started drizzling. We had breakfast @ Kanakapura and we started our journey, it was raining. So it become difficult for us to race. We were ridding @ a speed of 40- 50 km speed, bcoz the road was damn good, but many hair pin bends are there. We reached the water fall by 11 am . 

First we went on a small boat to the place where the waterfall is there. Since the fall of water is heavy, bathing is prohibited there. So we can enjoy the beauty of water fall from the small boat. For this short trip, you have to pay Rs.50/-  for the boat ride. At max, five people can travel in that boat . That was nice experience.



After that we decided to bath. When we get down into the water, it was so cold. We had a blast time there by sprinkling water and swimming.. One of my friend tried to swim towards the waterfall, but due to the force of water he is swimming in the same place.
We were enjoying the bath for almost  3 hrs , after that we got tired.







When we were starting back the time is 3.00 pm, its sunny and we have decided to race that time . We raced @ average of 80 km/hr speed and we have reached some high speed of 110 km/hr speed. We reached Bangalore @ 5.30 pm in the evening and we got stuck up into new year traffic in banerghatta road.
