Long time back, we went to a trip. This time it was Mulashi Dam. Sunil was the reason we went for this outing otherwise we all be at home on weekends. And that's really bad because as IT professionals, there were hardly few occasions (other than office) when we friends spend some time together. Looks like everyone is so busy in their work that we forget to enjoy some small moments of happiness (other than boozing). First rule of planning a trip is don't plan it, because if you plan way before time, reasons (explanations) start coming up and then the whole purpose of the trip goes kaput.
So, as usual we did not plan it. We decided to go to Mulshi and gathered at Chandni chowk the next day (Saturday). Few friends chipped in (Yogesh, Sibi, Varun, Indrajeet, Rakesh,Algesh, Minad).

After a hour of riding, we reached Mulshi. We were planning to go further to Tamhini Ghat but we were there was not enough petrol in the bikes so we stopped. We parked the bikes in a nearby hotel and went out to see the beauty of nature. Yogesh being a good singer hummed some melodies for us. Many jumped into the lake and had a hearty bath. We had one digital camera and one film camera with us which were sufficient to capture some small wonders. After the bath everyone was hungry so we went for lunch. The hotel was small but very good, especially good for family outings. Being a nice friend and a orkut lover, I took their pics so that they can flaunt their style. All were tired because of a long journey or might have over eaten and needed a small nap.

It was around 5/6 PM when we left for Pune. In all it was a wonderful trip. We had a great time together and enjoyed it very much. There is always something in nature that has a power to refresh your minds and helps you start a new day with new spirit. This trip was no exception.
