1> Mysore, Karnataka.
About 13 of us went to Mysore in a Tempo Traveller to attend our friend's Wedding. It was one hilarious and funny trip. We had loads of fun on our way. The Vehicle was arranged by my friend Ram. We had a well planned pick up schedule and everything went on well.
2> Calicuit/Kozhikode, Kerala.
Me, Reagan, Shuaib, Shankar and Rajendra went to Calicuit to attend Nishad's Wedding. This was a major misadventure as we went by car and the car was hired by Shuaib and it had a lot of problems... like no documents, the wheels were neither aligned nor balanced, There were two punctures on the way and once the tire burst. On our way back the gears gave up and the 5th and reverse gears did not work. The mechanic tried to con us there. We left Bangalore at 5 AM and at noon we were still in Mandya. We went through Mysore.

So, it was lot of fun. We had Breakfast at Bididhi and lunch in Chennapatna.
6 & 7> Tiger Ranch, Bandipur Forest reserve, Karnataka
13 of us went to Tiger Ranch in 3 cars. This is one of my best wild life adventure trip that I have had. We encountered a lot of Wild animals. We also went to a Safari in <7> Madhu Malai Forest Reserve, Tamil Nadu which is around 30 KM from the Tiger ranch as the Safari in TN is much cheaper. We stayed there over night and the next day on our way back we stopped at Chennapatana for dinner and went through Mysore just to see the City as it was during Dussera. Mysore was like a city of lights and celebration.
8> Chennai, Tamil Nadu (4)
I visited Chennai four times. Three times I traveled alone in train. First time was for my treatment. Second time was for my IELTS exam. Third time, I went there to look after my friend's Store as she was going to US for a long vacation. Once I went to Chennai with my family to attend my Uncle's funeral.

11, 12 & 13> Sabri Malai, Kerala
About 7 of us went on a Pilgrimage to Ayappa Temple in Sabri Malai. We Climbed the hill and there was a huge crowd waiting to enter the temple. It started to rain when we were climbing the hill as well as when we were waiting in the queue. We stayed there over night to get the prasad early in the morning and we left. This was a 3 day trip in a Tempo Traveler and we stopped at many places for breakfast, lunch and dinner. <12> Madhurai, Tamil Nadu: On our way back, we tool a deviation and went to Madhurai Meenakshi Amman Kovil, to take blessings from goddess Meenakshi. This temple is one of the ancient marvels and has more than 1000 huge Pillars, which are more than 12 feet tall and each pillar is sculpted out of a single stone. <13> Palani, Tamil Nadu: We also visited Palani Murugan Kovil, another ancient temple. We had stayed over night in Palani and climbed the hill first thing in the morning after our bath only to join a very long queue that lasted more than 5 hours. On our way we stopped at Kutralam, Tamil Nadu which is a famous tourist spot. The falls there is supposed to cure people of their body pain. All we have to do is get a herbal massage and sit under the falls and allow the force of the water to relive your pain.
14> Ellagiri Hills, Tamil Nadu
I along with 4 of my relatives went to Ellagiri hills by train, where we had our annual family get together. About 50 of my relatives had made to the gathering and it was a two day get together and we had a hotel booked on the hills just beside the huge man made lake.
I had a good year and I would like to thank all my friends and family members who traveled with me and also I want to thank my Brother Gokul who funded me for most of my trips.
